How do you say the word "forehead"

[The Sock of Poskett]

Couldn't really care about this, but what REALLY winds me up is when TV and radio presenters say "pronounciation" instead of pronunciation.

I like it when people say they have good pronounciation.

I didn't realise what a problem this was until on my Spanish learning podcast the other day. where he said make sure you pronounce "ProNUNciado" like so. I guess it's because in English we say pronounced, rather than pronunced...

Ma'am as in ham
or
Ma'am as is harm

There was a little girl,
Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
When she was good,
She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

I can picture this being read by Pam Ayres. Is she the gold standard?

My mate who supports Wealdstone FC, always corrects me when I pronounce it Wealdston

Not according to the audio.....

Sorry, I should've explained. It gives both pronunciations in the phonetic script.

/ˈfɒr.ɪd/ is forrid

/ˈfɔː.hed/ is forehead

Ma'am as in ham
or
Ma'am as is harm

Definitely ma'am as in ham. As someone who served in the WRNS, I can confirm that unequivocally.

Keenya was correct until they got independence. Jomo Kenyatta was the first president and the pronunciation was changed to Ken ya, from his name.

Is the correct answer from someone that lived there for 3 years.

I'm old enough to remember when they got independence. My Dad went to Silver Sands a few times, and Mombasa, etc when he was in the Navy.

Got a bit tired of Nairobi but Mombasa is a lovely place, I would move there if another job came up.

I spent some time with an old cricket mate just outside Nairobi called Muchakos - he was building an industrial fish farm - lovely place but the driving is mental ....
