Subject: Can you buoy?
In Phoenix I heard a family use buoy [bu i] while swimming in a pool.
The youngest child was floating, and others said "Look, he can buoy!",
then began asking others if they, too, could "buoy."
Does anyone know where this is from? The older children pronounced
pliers as [pla ers] (plahers).
