[Ads-l] Do we mostly say "ken" for "can"

[Tom Zurinskas]

My texting speech recognition to write text from my voice constantly replaces the spoken word "Ken" with "can."  So it must be that we say "ken" for "can" in US dialect.  I "ken" understand that.  But when I say "can" it does write "can".  When I say "HI Ken."  it writes "Hi can".
