To get annoyed when people write 'nawwww'

This is appearing so much lately and it's making me irrationally angry!

Surely NO-ONE says 'Nnawwww' it's just 'awww'.

When I say it has no N in it at all!!

Why do people write this?! Angryand how do you say it?

Never heard it. Just your mates Grin

It's on Facebook and other social media everywhere!! It can't just be my friends as I have two very separate parts of my life in two different areas of the country and it's happening with people from both!!

Naaawwww is what people say in Scotland as in no. I've never seen it written anywhere but I hear it every day. It drives me nuts.

I've never heard of it either.

steff13 · 26/11/2014 18:32

I don't know anyone who says "nawwww," but I would assume it's a way of saying no, not awww.

Nativity3 · 26/11/2014 18:33

It's definitely awww!
