resk Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 On pronunciation, what is it with the English that when they see the suffix "...shire" they think it should be pronounced "sheer"? Presumably they also pronounce "shite" as "sheet"? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third time to the fuse box today... Does it trip when the oven actually comes on/fires up? New heat element needed. If it’s just when you’re fiddling with the clock that’s maybe more serious. Don’t have nightmares! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say for example Llangollen - would be pronounced with a harder C at the start - something like Clangochen. But there's every chance they were talking shite. Is Ebbw Vale pronounced Ebba Vale and is Cardigan 'Cardeekan'? How do they pronounce dwelling? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottmcleanscontacts Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 How do they pronounce dwelling?Probably as dwelling, seeing as it's an English word. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third time to the fuse box today... Your ovens heat element is fecked, costs about 80 quid to replace it. Had the same issue earlier this year whenever I tried to set it above 170 degrees. Edited September 19, 2020 by Perkin Flump heat element as mentioned, not thermometer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Cardigan is Welsh, i think it might be English. Kerry dig ee on (Ceredigion). When I first moved to Mid Wales people were astonished that I could easily pronounce place names but our hard ch sound is identical to the ll you encounter in the Gogg, Machynlleth or Llangollen is easy for us to pronounce whereas an English person living in Shropshire haven't a hope in hell of saying it properly even though they are just across the border. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
