Question

Is it 'sconn' or 'scoen'

As someone who has made the things since she was eight years old, I feel somewhat of an expert in the field and in my area; everyone says 'sconn'.

Answer 1

I learned in school it was sconn, or that it shouldn't rhyme with stone, anyway.

Answer 2

Sconn

Answer 3

its coloquial

in some areas its sconn s cohn
in others its a hard 'o' s cone

and something to enjoy with your tea and scone=feeling good about yourself helps you feel good about others and see the best in them

Truth is many are willing to give up their future for the fun of the "There is pleasure in sin for a season, but then cometh the judgement." When we believe a lie so we can throw away the truth we get problems
"In marriage the bed is undefiled, but the others will be judged." Hebrews 13 also in that chapter once you let Jesus into your heart to save you from sin and be your friend "I will never leave thee nor forsake thee."

You got to decide if your worth a true love first from above

peace in Jesus care and prayer John 3 asked forgiveness of sins and Jesus to come into my heart to be my best friend, David
