	Funny, I say the "l" in "folk," but not in "yolk." Got them both anyway.

	What the yogh?

	Sackgirl:	Mar 14th, 2013 at 19:07 GMT		9 points
	@alastor I looked up yogh and apparently it's: A Middle English letter (ȝ) used mainly where modern English has gh and y.

	Minkymink:	Mar 14th, 2013 at 19:12 GMT		17 points
	I guess it depends on where one is from, but I personally pronounce the "l" in both "folk" and "yolk", so I didn't consider them as perfect rhymes.

	Who pronounces the l in folk or yolk? That's just strange.

	In Canada "toque" is pronounced as if it rhymes with "puke", not "oak".

	I pronounce the l in both folk and yolk and do not consider them rhymes with oak. I think it is regional preference.

	Man, getting some of these answers is a.. oh, I just got another.

	WyattsTorch:	Mar 14th, 2013 at 20:04 GMT		32 points
	Yeah, I'm with @rockgolf. I was kind of stunned to see "toque" on here, because I've always known it as a "tuke" sound. I'm Canadian, so it's perhaps a regionalism...but then again, who else wears toques?

	In rhyming quizzes always wonder what the individual results wd.be if the guesses were random and not in alphabetical order (in my case hoke and moke were pure guesses based on where the blanks were).

	slipkid:	Mar 14th, 2013 at 20:10 GMT		10 points
	I'm not Canadian, but according to Merriam-Webster: 'tuque' noun ˈtük, ˈtyük: a warm knitted usually pointed stocking cap. 'toque' noun ˈtōk: a woman's small hat without a brim made in any of various soft close-fitting shapes or a tall brimless hat worn by a chef —called also toque blanche.

	I pronounce the L in folk, but not in yolk. It didn't stop me from trying all the permutations of "olk" though. If there were strikes, I probably wouldn't have gotten to the 21 top answers.

	Meltha:	Mar 14th, 2013 at 20:42 GMT		3 points
	I thought yogh rhymed with low.

	midlifecrisis:	Mar 14th, 2013 at 20:49 GMT		3 points
	evoke is not one syllable - I've never heard of moke before

	@Slipkid: Merriam-Webster is a US dictionary. The Canadian spelling is most commonly "toque". For example, look here: http://canada.roots.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-RootsCA-Site/default/Search-Show?q=toque pr here: http://www.thebay.com/eng/hbccollections-olympiccollection-accessories-Canada_Toque_Hat-thebay/278556

	I pronounce the "l" in both folk and yolk, and it would seem really very strange to my ear that you wouldn't.

	what about "troche" ? it is a word for a pill/med given as a lozenge that you suck on.

	fakeinanehiker:	Mar 14th, 2013 at 22:24 GMT		1 point
	i saw that your reference has it as a 2 syllable word - said tro-kee, but in med. we just pronounce it "troke"

	I can ALWAYS count on these rhyming quizzes to come up with words I have never heard before.

	20... but the last four (all of the least guessed) i've never even heard of...so that means i've searched my brain and was able to pull out every single thing it knew out of it........ so, i'm pretty happy... even though there are 4 words that i don't know that i probably should was very fun

	fartmaster:	Mar 15th, 2013 at 01:04 GMT		16 points
	Some folk'll never say the "L" but then again some folk'll like Cletus the slack-jawed yokel

	Clearly Merriam-Webster has no love for Norfolk dialect words - I've walked down many a loke in my time. http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/loke

	I credit The Shining (the book) for getting me roque.

	Folk and yolk definitely rhyme with oak here. Never heard them pronounced otherwise including tv/movies (Th-th-th-that's all folks). Also toque rhymes with duke for me. Only one I hadn't heard of at all was "roque".

	Tone Loc does not like this quiz. He feels left out.

	OwenHerring:	Mar 15th, 2013 at 14:44 GMT		2 points
	The Shorter OED says yogh is pronounced like the same syllable in yoghurt - you wouldn't say 'yokurt'. When I was learning Old English, we pronounced it 'yogh', a voiced version of the consonant at the end of Scottish 'loch' (voiced guttural fricative).
