Mom or Mum?

[Crystal Clair]

To me, it's mom all the way. I was born American, eat at McDonalds and celebrate on July 4th. Why not go all the way?
Okay, seriously, I was born saying mommy and taught it was o and not u. Okay, I think I got my point through.
Weirdly despite my location in the country, I dont have one bit of a New York accent, in fact I sound a little country.

Oo;
...well as far as I can remember it I've been spellin' it "mom"... o.o;

 

[serpenter]

mum, my mum said it was mum so i say mum

 

[Cookie luvs Green]

I use "mum" around 1-3 grade.
Then I used "mom" from 4th grade till now.

But I call my mom, "mama" instead =P She likes it that way xD;

 

[Arcanine]

I just always use "mom". If I say it any other way it just sounds strange to me. XD

 

[EvIL_CAjUN_CHIkIN]

I don't know, I don't really spell it, I just say it... O.o

 

[Drifblim]

I use them interchangeably. Here in the US, the pronunciations are so similar that no-one's going to laugh at you for it like they would if you kept spelling 'colour' like that without dropping the 'u'.

 

[Sammi]

I spell it mom. I use mum very rarely. I grew up with mom, you see. ^^;;;
I might use mum more often in writing though. ^^;;

 

[Icy Soul]

I always spelled it and said it by Mom. I always thought that mum was just used as a joke or from that really annoying bad pun from that halloween town movie.

 

[Kurono]

I only use Mom, Mum seems to European for me..XD

 

[The Fallen]

Mum is more on the english side. I say mom probably cause that's what everyone else says here XD.

 

[coachwhipneoship]

Both, I alternate between 'em. And use Ma.

 

[Dawg 2005]

I call her mumma. XD

I spell it mom though...I always have for some reason...Hm

 

[Chikara]

[Rhykasho]

[VelvetDratini]

[Sorye HK]

I've been using "mum," since I can remember.

 

[Legolas]
