A sabot (pronounced /ˈseɪboʊ/ SAY-boh or /ˈsæboʊ/ SAB-oh) (French for a wooden shoe or clog) is a device used in a firearm or cannon to fire a projectile, such as a bullet, that is smaller than the bore diameter, or which must be held in a precise position.

I just call them "those bullets with the plastic thingy on em' ". Sa-boh or sya-bow or whatever does sound gay so I hillbilly it up to bring back some manliness back into the conversation. With than said, I am also a grammar snob. Growing up with a dozen teachers in my family makes me ultra aware of mispronunciations and grammatical errors, but I tend not to correct someone unless it is my wife or kids.
Cannot agree more.
Some of the best advice young adults could be given is the advice to "let" others be wrong.

Gervais, Touchet, Cheyenne (chien), Pend Oreille (pend d'oreille), Nez Perce, Coeur d'Alene, Des Moines, Deschutes, La Grande, Malheur.
My favorite English/French variance in our region is Bitch Creek. It was named that because the French trappers first named it after a doe. Their word for doe is spelled biche which sounds like beesh in English (to sound like a Frenchman, either plug your nose or say the E like you are about ready to cough). Sounds a bit like bitch, add a little sense of humor. Thus the name.

"What about just accepting people for who they are?? :'(" ... :bdid:
Post by: bobcat on February 24, 2011, 07:26:02 PM
I don't think not knowing how to pronounce the word "sabot" indicates "who" someone is. It's probably just that nobody ever told them the correct way to say it. It's not exactly a word people learn to pronounce in school. I would think that most people would appreciate being told that they are saying it wrong. I know I would.
