To me, words ending in ch (but not tch), look like transliterated Hebrew. So that's how I pronounce Amych.

I am with Fay, though I suspect with a longer A sound at the beginning.

I pronounce them both with a long a sound at the beginning.
The pictures are fantastic.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
And 'ammith'. Ditto.
But amyth looks like "a myth," which is how I say it. With a long a. But a stress on the first syllable, of course.

Because books.
I have no idea why, but I've always read amych as "aim-mick". Or is that what Jessica was saying (not knowing anything about Hebrew)?
amyth gets a long "a" from me, too.

Tom Scola took some great pictures. And I'm not just saying that because there's a nice one of my DH and I in the bunch.
What I really want to know is, how the heck did Perkins avoid his camera, even on the aquarium day? (Tom, if she threatened you, you can tell us.)
I usually say, "amy-c-h" or "amy-t-h" in my head.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
From all these pictures, I have discovered I bit my bottom lip all too much and that I flail my arms around in an embarassing fashion.

Because books.
In most of the pictures, I look like I'm possessed. Me = red eyes of hell. Even standing next to people who did not come out with red eye.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Also? The whole "how you pronounce amyth and amych" discussion?Ooh! Are we doing this again? I love the amy__ debate. Don't forget about amyp (ammip) either!
