If you pronounce it OK...LAHOMA, apparently you're wrong. 

The proper way is:

OKLA .......HOMA. Note that there's a gap between the 'A' and the 'H'.

Think I'm wrong?  Well, I can prove it.....................

OK, I was going to take issue with that, but with the visual aid, I've decided you're absolutely right.

Only way I ever pronounced it was Oh-Key.

Sorry, I had to do it before Raymond from Kansas got ahold of it.

Believe he goes by Pearl's Driver or some sort of thing like that.

My remember don't work too well anymore and I'm too lazy to go look it up.

Happy January 3, 2012.    Damn, never thought I'd live to see that date.......

We have a similar problem down here in Marion County. There is a little town called Oklawaha. Seems the original spelling was OCKlawaha. 
Here we go.  Roll Eyes

Also, Florida has been accused of being a FLAT state.
Here's proof it's not.

I would appear that Oklahoma is the real deal though, whereas the others are inflated claims  crazy2
