[ RadSafe ] The "Nucular" debate : WARNING Off topic

[Dahlskog, Leif]

hmmm, don't get me started on the "Queen's" english with its silent
letters and other, in my view, nonsense peculiarities such as different
pronunciation of words spelt the same.

Oops: folk-sell IS the correct (marine) pronunciation for forecastle!

As is "Wooster" for Worcestershire. The "Queens" English can be funny at
times!

Dan, et.al.  One of my favorites is "forecastle", pronounced
"folk-sell".
Another is the city of "bum-in-ham".

Actually, I believe it comes more from Texas, as in San An-ton-ya (San
Antonio) or La-ray-da (Laredo). Been there, heard it said.....said it,
too.
