ABC News reports:
Donald Trump raised some eyebrows in the Silver State Wednesday night when he told Nevadans how to pronounce their state’s name — differently than they do.
“Heroin overdoses are surging and meth overdoses in Nevada, Nuh-VAH-da,” he told the crowd in Reno. “And you know what I said? I said when I came out here I said nobody says it the other day, has to be Nuh-VAH-da.
“And if you don’t say it correctly and it didn’t happen to me but it happened to a friend of mine he was killed.” Generally, the state’s name is pronounced Nuh-VAD-uh.
