And a recent survey on the scone issue. Good to see that in my county, Cheshire, 63% pronounce it to rhyme with “gone”. Presumably the other 37% of folk have emigrated to the northwest from “down south”

Most Americans have only ever heard it pronounced like CONE.
I change my pronunciation depending on who I’m with.
