      This might be a regionalism. I’ve never heard anyone say skosh (rhyming with gauche) as opposed to scooch (rhyming with…mooch).

      But we pronounce a lot of things “wrong” in New Orleans. There usually turns out to be an interesting reason for it and sometimes, it’s just a gradual corruption of the original pronunciation.
