The key to pronouncing Gaelic is simple...*nothing* sounds like it looks, ever.

I knew how to pronounce it because my old SCA group was pronounced "Athena Shee", and the last part was spelled like that. It meant "windy" folk. (Kingman is windy ALL the TIME.)

there's no way you'd come up with "shee" from Sidhe

LJ, Think of it as an opportunity to acquire a bit of culture. :D

Plus, English is just as bad. You may have seen this before:

ghoti

How would you pronounce that in English? -------- Fish.

gh as in tough
o as in women
ti as in motion

I've seen that many times, and for some reason I never remember it until I read the explanation.

I drink, therefore I am

For the record...once more....That's not my ass

Also for the record, I bet I drink way less than most here...just happen to usually think it's a hoot at the time I'm 3/4 in the bag to hang out here ;-)

I admit I'm overly proud of my current title "Postage doo". It's a strangely complicated yet simple pun.

gh as in tough

ti as in motion

that's not right.

you would only pronounce the gh as an f after ou. the o in women only changes to i because of the e. the ti needs the on to be sh.

bunk example

you should have told that teacher to go ghuch himself
