Well the game keno is pronounce 'key-no' here in the USA, so when I see Kano my mind reads 'kay-no'. Great, now I've gotta retrain my mind! 
in US (at least in some places) even va-cation is pronounced vey-cation, LOL and jaguar is pronounced either as jag-u-ar or jag-wire.
Another one is Addy-das vs A-dee-das.

I'm from Maine and we say everything funny according to the rest of the world... we pahk our cahs in the yahd.
But I always thought Kano was Kahno. Never thought otherwise!
Now, how about we find some blocks?!?!?!?
not the whole world, those from Baa-ston dig it as well.
Loved that 'accent' in 'Good Will Hunting'.
Anyway, Maine is a kind of place I would probably like to retire in (when it's going to happen, if ever).
Cheers
