What about the inchworm song: two and two is four four and four is eight eight and eight is sixteen sixteen and sixteen is thirty two Bunn, you should start a tally of how many people ask you how to pronounce your name. It is rather unfair to use Gaelic though. bh=v usually. And for that matter other odd Gaelic spelling, mh=v or silent, dh=y or silent or gurgle, th=silent or h, fh=silent, sh=silent. All those silent consonants make for some strange spellings. Like Gaelic version of Donald is Domhnail pronounced Dol. That's not the worst one I've seen, jsut the first I could think of. Gaelic is a strange language.
