Illinoi?
yeah that’s how its said
What does it mean?
Illinois, pronounced Illinoy, is from an ancient Illini Indian word “Iliniwek”, meaning “fuck you white man go away”.
You’ll find many city and land names around America translated loosely as the same, then some white people were probably like iT meAnS lArGe RiVeR and wrote that down instead.
It means Illinois (the S is silent)
The for nothing?
I’m always disgusted by how badly people pronounce Illinois.
It’s ill-in-wah ffs
I live somewhere, but it’s pronounced “On your screen”.
I live in San Diego but the S is silent. The D is loud though.
