Whenever I need to say Millet, we eat it from time to time, I first think in my head that it should be pronounced Millay (like Fillet of fish) so I just refer to it as Edna St. Vincent, as in "Do we have any more Edna St. Vincent or are we out?"
I think my doing things like that has made my kids better at figuring things out. Certainly if they end up doing double acrostics.
