1. aboot
A word meaning 'about' said by eastern Canadians, the Scots (well, southern Scots anyway) and parts of north-east England.

One of the greatest words that isn't in the English language.
"What's this aboot?"

a wonderful Canandianism...I too thought it to be a myth until I came to live in montreal.
person 1: Damn you, stop scoffing at my snowpants.

person 2: I don't know what you're talking aboot! I'm wearing snowpants too. They sure are sporty, eh?
5. Aboot
A word that dumb ass Americans think Canadians say.
Canadian: What are you talking about?
American: Dont you mean aboot?
Canadian: No.
American: Oh.
6. Aboot
A common misconception. Canadians think Americans pronounce "about" as "aboot" and Americans think Canadians pronounce "about" as "aboot" as well. However, to my knowledge, no one actually pronounces "about" as "aboot".
American Guy: You're from Canada?! Say about! Say it!
Canadian Guy: ...About?
American Guy: What? Don't you say aboot?
Canadian Guy: ...No?
7. Aboot
What dumbass Americans sometimes hear from Canadians when it really sounds like "Aboat"
American: At least I know what I'm talking aboot!
Candadian: You're a dumbass.
