How do you/most people in your area pronounce the word "coyote"?
« on: August 03, 2016, 03:05:56 am »
So, how do you/most locals pronounce the word "coyote"? In my parts, almost everybody pronounces it like Kai-Yote (Yote rhymes with moat), but I prefer to pronounce it like Kai-Yo-Tee.

I pronounce it is as Kai-Yo-Tee too. I think it sounds more accurate.

I say Kai-Oh-Tee, though a lot of my older relatives say "Kai-Ote", which honestly bothers me a bit xD But yeah, I say it with three syllables.

I pronounce it as Kai-Yo-Tee, as well, but a friend of mine would occasionally pronounce it Koi-Yoi-T, so sometimes I'll use the latter pronunciation for fun.

Kai-oh-tee. Always have. Not sure about other people, nobody really talks about coyotes much seeing as...well, they don't live here.
