    Not proper pronunciation, I used to frequent an Italian grocery in Spokane. The woman, who was from the other side, would often frown and moan in pain at my south Philly pronunciation, but always took the time to teach me to say it correctly.
    Darn if I don't get into trouble when visiting Philly now, and pronounce the words correctly there.

    One of my favs:
    Philly slang = Gabagool
    Correct pronunciation = Capacola (cah-pa-cola)

    another:
    PS = Mah-knee-GOAT
    CP = Mah-knee-CO-tee
