Hot tip!

Did you know....????

I asked Tara how to pronounce the name of the mountains in the area. For those of you in the know, the local mountains in the east of the United States go by either "App-a-LATCH-an" or "App-a-LAY-chan" and both are correct, it just depends on your preference, and mostly where you were reared.

However, these mountains are the "Him-ALL-a-yans", not "Him-a-LAY-ans". So, if you're like me, you'll use appropriate "pro-nun-see-A-shun" when you refer to them in the future.
Yours in correct linguistics,
karen
