To think an English teacher should know the correct pronunciation of Glamis?

[susannahmoodie]

As in Thane of......?

Or is it now ok to say "glam-mis"??

Yes it is a bit late.

do you have one of these only it's 17 months since the last post!

aka Z-O-M-B-I-E

Glaams and an English teacher should probably know it.

It's a ZOMBIE Crumbs1.

Bloody annoying when resurrect them.

Glamis to me is to be pronounced as Glamis NOT GLARMZ why is the letter I left out of the name,it's stupidity like all the frenchisms in our language!!

Oh, the year 9 learning Macbeth for the first time is here to teach us all about Shakespearean English.

Whatever else that pronunciation is, it is definitely not "frenchist".

If you're so much in favour of pronouncing each letter in place names, how do you feel about Leicester, Worcestershire, Alnwick, Mousehole, Tottenham, Bicester, Frome, Thames, Leominster, Edinburgh?
