Specific accent joke.
what accent?
Forrest Gump, I guess. Whatever that is.
I do not get it :(
“Age” and “H” sound alike, so when the Doc wants to know the patient’s age, the patient thinks the Doc wants help with spelling the name.
That’s bad, that is a bad joke, that is not funny and doesn’t make sense in text form and barely makes sense in verbal from. age and H do not sound the same at all.
I agree with you on all counts.
Scottish folk kinda sound like they’re saying Age as in H. But it’s more Eeetch, and it’s still a stretch and still unfunny.
No we fucking don’t.
I wouldn’t figure that one by myself, thank you
I know what it means, but can someone explain it for YoFrodo?
Ooooohh lmao
There are a couple of ways to pronounce the letter ‘H’ that could sound like ‘age’; one that keeps a soft ‘hah’ sound before ‘aitch’ and one that drops the soft ‘hah’. Both can end up sounding similar to a cross between eight/age depending on how clearly you enunciate.
Edit; Age also has a sharper ‘tch’ sound when spoken in those accents. There are probably accents that use a softer ‘g’ sound
Age sounds like the letter H so the patient thinks that the doctor wants to know how to write their name correctly.
British people in shambles rn
Age sounds like H? Henry thinks the doc needs help spelling.
I guess it sounds similar in American English at least? For me it’d be “haitch” lol
Not in west coast american English at least. I don’t think I would ever mix these up where I live either.

You and gordon Ramsey and nobody else I’ve heard.
I know my
degeneratedelightful neighbours in Aussie pronounce it “hhaych” for some reason - maybe that’s got something to do with it?Plenty of British people do that, too
Oh wow, really?
Somehow i hadn’t noticed, but it feels right.
Ohh Oi’m 'Enery the Eighth oi am…
Age: Fourth, Age of Humans.
…and Henry was his name.
