Re: The Day The Routers Died

Some minor English dialects (e.g. en_US and en_CA) get the word
"route" (pr. root) mixed up with the word "rout" (pr. rowt);

As opposed to others, which get "route" mixed up with "root", which
also means something totally different (and, depending on exactly which
dialect you speak, possibly even off-colour).

Does anyone know of an en_* which pronounces "route", "rout", and
"root" each distinct from the other two?
