Subject: RE: BS: Pronunciation
there can be a problemo with pronunciation of Ceilidh, which when asked I usually reply "Barn Dance"
And getting receipts from local printers for publicity material, spelling goes the same way.

Now anyone care to pronounce Bodhran? Even Irish speakers differ but an average approximation would be:

Bow (as in bough) ron (as in da doo ron ron) Yea my heart stood still.........
