Californians Try To Pronounce Georgia Cities

How do you say Smyrna, Dahlonega, and Dekalb correctly? These Georgia cities and towns can be hard to pronounce, especially if you're not from the South, but it's funny to watch people try. Watch as these Californians try, and fail, to pronounce some of our best Georgia city names.

Not Cobb. D-Cab

[@CodyVonRose]

De-Cobb the city. De-Cab county for sure tho

[@staciekonkle485]

Dekalb is actually pronounced, Like “get in de cab,” not “corn on de cobb.”

[@heatherwyman5745]

Dekalb is duh-cab, and it is ok to say Senoia as sin-oy-uh.

[@FlippenWarhawk]

Born and raised in Georgia, didn't know a lot of these or how to say them. Also, a couple were wrong.

[@TMoneyBear]

Should've had Marietta. May-ret-uh.

[@doniswysetraditions]

It's De cab. Get some actual Georgians to help you next time.

[@wunderkinde2]

Nope on Dekalb. It’s “duh-CAB.”

[@Natasha-yx1tz]

Did y’all even consult a Georgian? BC a lot of these ain’t right. Literally nobody says “De-Cobb.”

[@legacyofthe243]

Exactly. It's Duh-Cab, nowhere even close to Duh-Cobb. There's a Cobb County and then there's Duh-Cab County.

[@thomasbest5263]

Ya’ll left out Piedmont pronounced “we-full”

[@ansleystanley8760]

Duh-CAB bro I've literally never heard anyone at all ever say it differently. Duh-Cobb. No. Just no. But the rest were right as far as I know. Dekalb just irked me so bad.

[@gaoutlaw]

DeKalb is d-cab, not d cobb 😵‍💫. The girl in red flannel is hot 😊

[@charlieredd81]

Did buddy say georgia creole

[@MsCalico60]

Where’s Willacoochee

[@rachelsteele4534]

We drove through there on the way to Orlando. We had jokes for miles!

[@dieseldude6740]

Where’s Armuchee??

[@Z062003]

DEE-CAB not De-Cobb

[@helenstrickland102]

How did y’all screw up Dee-Cab? Cobb is a completely different county.

[@1985toyotacamry]

Even my former Floridian behind know it's De-Cab.

[@ms.melissa1384]

Thank you guy in orange it is, in fact, KAY row. But y'all should have included Ochlocknee.

[@marthashaffer8295]

You need to put in Martinez! "MAR-tin (like the metal)-ez

[@jenniferkapheim6076]

I have been to hopeulikit!!!

[@Eazy987]

Where's Valdosta 😂😂😂

[@reidpuckett1741]

De-cab not dee-Cobb

[@cythniaprovence8054]

Good grief🤔

[@barroco05]

I wonder how they pronunce 'Forsyth' County. I saw a Korean-translated document and the Hangul(easily can be said 'Korean alphabet') was not in correct, so I disappointed as a long-term resident of it.

[@kathrynking1213]

For-sigh-th. We have a county by that name and a city by that name here in Georgia.

[@legacyofthe243]

@@kathrynking1213 For-syth is only pronounced that way for the city. Fur or Fer-syth for the county that I was born and raised in.

[@ansleystanley8760]

We say fer-sigh-th
