2.

A common mispronunciation of the word umpteen, generally believed to stem from the relative nonemphasis of the "m", in regions which favor a southern drawl. Contributing to the misunderstanding are relatively low levels of literacy and continuing education among the largely oral-tradition culture endemic to the U.S.'s breadbasket, ironically.

"I done got upteen (sic) fishes down at Jeb's hole; I'm-a fixin' to cook them sumbitches up right quick."

See umpteen, brazillion, inbreeding, bush, retard
