It depends. Also, if you're from Minnesota, the UP of Michigan, or Canada, it's more like a mix of root and wrote.

You haven't heard a canuck accent before? Ask someone from Canada (or the northern parts of MN/WI/MI/ND) to say "I went out and about in a boat (near my house)."

Both are correct, but root is the more common pronunciation.

Well yeah, I've heard "about" turn into "aboot", but never a "route" into a "wrote."
