So this morning I see people all over Twitter making fun of the way Right Wing Commentator Tucker Carlson mispronounced the Word “Ottawa” on National TV.
Actually he is the only guy I have ever seen get it right. Or at least come close.
The correct way to say the word is aw - DDah- wah ...
The origin of the name "Ottawa" is derived from the Algonquin word aDawe, meaning "to trade". The word refers to the indigenous peoples who used the river to trade, hunt, fish, camp, harvest plants, ceremonies, and for other traditional uses.
Good job Tucker.

Love it, would love to know if he was intentional or not.
