Elmuh Fudd Syndwome: Difference between revisions

Now to be confused wiff "[[Baby Talk]]", which is dewibewate.

 

* Nina from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]''.

* In the English translation of ''[[Black Jack (Manga)|Black Jack]]'', Pinoko talks like this.

* Used with annoying frequency by the titular character in the official English translation of the [[Chi's Sweet Home]] manga. Occasionally, they'll even toss Ws into the middle of words that HAVE NO CORRESPONDING L OR R SOUND.

* [[Frasier]] had a temp help out on his radio show once, with this problem. He related a tragic tale about how he lost his wife in the Caribbean. She ran away with a Rastafarian. Roz, [[Funny Background Event|listening from her sound booth in the background, was simply dying.]] Just repeat the above line for yourself to understand why.

* The [[Honey I Shrunk the Kids (TV)|TV show]] based on ''[[Honey I Shrunk the Kids (Film)|Honey, I Shrunk the Kids]]'' featured Fwuffy, a robotic teddy bear that is infected with a computer virus. Fwuffy plans to take over the world. His use of this trope even carries over into his spelling. When Nick has to guess his password, it ends up being ''destwoy''.

 

== Music ==

* Most English songs from 1980's German singer Nena, in particular "99 Red Balloons": "to wuwwy, wuwwy, supah scuwwy, caw the twoops out in a huwwy..."

* [[Lady Gaga]]'s song "Bad Romance" features her, after [[Bilingual Bonus|singing most of the bridge in French]], sing "I don't wanna be fwiends..." Strangely, this is the only time in that song she comes down with Elmer Fudd Syndrome. The ''very next'' repetition of the line is sung normally.

* Matt Bellamy, the lead singer/guitarist/pianist of the British rock band Muse does this. [http://www.youtube.comr/watch?v=pzpGk44UXKQ It's particulawly noticeable in Muse's performance of "Time is Running Out" at Wembley in 2007, seen on their HAARP DVD]. This lisp, particularly Bellamy's pronunciation of the word "proper" (which comes out more as "pwopah"), has become a Muse fandom meme.

 

== Weal Wife ==

 

* [[Jonathan Ross]]. Also fondly known as [http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Wossy "Wossy"].

* Barbara Walters, famously parodied by [[Saturday Night Live]] as "Baba Wawa".

* Longtime Celtics broadcaster Bob Cousy, leading [[Bill Simmons]] to say "It's a good thing Cousy doesn't call Red Sox games where he'd have to pronounce Trot Nixon's name."

* Incidentally, many English accents sound rather like this. This can be unintentionally humorous if a character has a [[Funetik Aksent]] (for instance, the Artful Dodger in ''[[Oliver Twist]]''.)
