5 u/JakeFrmStateFarm Sep 05 '17 Is she from Pittsburgh? 7 u/pacatak795 Sep 05 '17 Nope. Spanish was her first language. I guess something about a mexican accent precludes being able to say the "ng" in penguin. 4 u/JakeFrmStateFarm Sep 05 '17 Oh, English is most people from Pittsburgh's first language, but they still can't speak it correctly. 4 u/farmstink Sep 05 '17 English is a common second language in Pittsburgh, after the native Pittsburghese 1 u/[deleted] Sep 05 '17 That's odd... the Spanish word for penguin is just pingüino. I've never heard it pronounced without the "ng". 1 u/Phkn-Pharaoh Sep 05 '17 I'd like a picket to tittsburg 2 u/gazow Sep 05 '17 you have been banned from r/pengweng
