Nuh-VAH-duh. It's the flat A vs. AH.
It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

There is a town here in Utah called Eureka. Pronounced YUR-uh-ka.
And Hurricane is HER-uh-kun, slurred as much as possible to 2 syllables. I suspect the founders were related.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I hope we can agree the Du Bois bookstore is pronounced "Dew Boys."
Absolutely! (After all, I live in a state with a town named Versailles, pronounced Ver-SALES.)

Now tagless for your comfort.
My nephew has decided to go to college at ETSU and follow his Bluegrass music dream. I don't suppose anyone here is anywhere near Johnson City, TN?
tiggy's in Nashville. I also have a friend from high school living in Nashville--her husband is in the industry.

I will wait for megan to arrive and point out that "Cheviot" would not be pronounced that way in actual French. Faux-French may have different rules.
Hah! I was just contemplating this and had decided to refrain.
I think Cheviot would be something like "chev-yo" in French
And then Amy did my work for me.
Thanks for picking up the slack while I was walking to work!

Though, actually, checking a map, it's only slightly farther to where I live than to Nashville. And only an hour to Asheville, NC, which is lovely.

Nashville is over 250 miles away, so I doubt anyone there knows about pizza places (for a gift certificate) near campus, or some other idea to stick in his graduation card.
He's made the right choice for him, I think. But he's grown up in Los Angeles, mostly.

Because books.
Thanks for picking up the slack while I was walking to work!
I'm shocked I got it right!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
