Thread Name: BS: Pronunciation of 'Colin'
Subject: RE: BS: Pronunciation of 'Colin'
I told a tale recently on mudcat about a party across the dtreet and our frantic improvisation in getting a barrel of beer to give up its contents. Our host's name was Colin ---aye, "Koh-lin" It seems to depend on just where in Scotland you were raised; I never once ran into a "Caw-lin".
