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.

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

[@jenstrickland2158]

Not Cobb. D-Cab

[@FlippenWarhawk]

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

[@heatherwyman5745]

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

[@staciekonkle485]

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

[@TMoneyBear]

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

[@MsCalico60]

Where’s Willacoochee

[@rachelsteele4534]

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

[@ms.melissa1384]

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

[@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”

[@charlieredd81]

Did buddy say georgia creole

[@jenniferkapheim6076]

I have been to hopeulikit!!!

[@dieseldude6740]

Where’s Armuchee??

[@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

[@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.

[@Eazy987]

Where's Valdosta 😂😂😂

[@marthashaffer8295]

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

[@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 😊

[@doniswysetraditions]

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

[@Z062003]

DEE-CAB not De-Cobb

[@reidpuckett1741]

De-cab not dee-Cobb

[@cythniaprovence8054]

Good grief🤔
