    thanks !   i can almost pronounce Caorthannach smiley

    It's pronounced  queer-hawn-nock

    Tis useful having a grandaughter who is learning to speak Gaelic at school.

    Irish and Scottish gaelic can be very confusing, even worse than Welsh sometimes.

    "T" is silent? OK. smiley

    Interesting... I've noticed that people from that part of the planet seem to have no idea how to pronounce half the letters in their alphabet, yet claim there is some logical basis behind it.  I think they just forgot. devil  Either that, or they got some letters in a bargain basement and just toss them into their words at random.  But in some cases there must have been a shortage on vowels. surprise 

    I've never understood silent letters... Why have them if you don't pronounce them... Was it that once upon a time there was a Letter Union that stipulated that X number of letters had to be employed in certain words even if they were doing nothing...or you couldn't speak or write them?

    It not like we have silent numbers?

    But it could be a great excuse for bad math... "Oh, yeah... My numbers look off, but there were a lot of silent 7s and 9s, so once you factor those in you'll see it's all in order." 

    I suspect a lot of Mega Corporations have been employing silent numbers in their accounting practices lately.

    Raise your hand if you pronounce the "l" in "salmon".

     

    Hand is up. :-)

    Raise your hand if you don't pronounce the "l" in "help".

    Say what? surprise​  Yes, I do pronounce the l in help. 

    I'll drop a g in a heartbeat, but I do pronounce most words correctly.

    No o in (o) possum though.  Just possum. 

    Australia agrees. Just possum.

    The older I get the more I remember things in my dreams better than reality.  I remember conversations that I know I never had. I have a recurring dream about a particular apartment in some city with steep hills, and I remember the city streets and the highways around it, it's sort of like Washington, DC, but I never lived in any city with hills.  I know the apartment, the neighbors, the financial problems I had buying the apartment, the repairs that needed to be done.  Weird.

  • I've been watching the NetFlix original series "Marco Polo".  The critics didn't think it was that hot, but I find it very good.  Excellent scenery, lots of horses, good special effects, great costumes, plot hasn't gotten boring yet, acting is tolerable.  All in all, it's kept me entertained for a long time.

    I've been watching the NetFlix original series "Marco Polo".  The critics didn't think it was that hot, but I find it very good.  Excellent scenery, lots of horses, good special effects, great costumes, plot hasn't gotten boring yet, acting is tolerable.  All in all, it's kept me entertained for a long time.

    Short on car chases, shootouts and robots though. no

    Robo-Marco Polo... Hmmm.... Interesting... Interesting...
