                    Scone as in S-Cone - Or Scone as in S-Gone
Almond as in Al-Mond or Almond as in All-mond
Potato as in Pot ate oh or Potato as in Pot art oh
Far more pressing than matters of Charlton!

 Almond - neither. I say arl-mond.

 The real pressing ones are Almonds and Scones.0

            It must be S-cone.
 The 'e' on the end makes you say the 'o' as the letter.
 same with pipe, bone, cone, metronome...

 The problem with the English language is that there is always an exception to a general rule. Scone being one of them.cafcnick1992 said:It must be S-cone.
