You Know You’re From San Diego When…

You Pronounce City Names Right

Luh-Hoy-ya, El-Kuh-hone, La May-suh- these are the correct ways to pronounce the towns of La Jolla, El Cajon and La Mesa. You can spot a local compared to a tourist from a mile away when they try to pronounce these names that seem so obvious to us, but not others.

It’s actually quite hilarious how badly they are mispronounced and we cannot help but giggle, but we do so in our heads as to not make others feel bad about it. It is possible that when we were younger we attempted to say them incorrectly, but it’s just something you learn growing up in the greatest city ever.
