Shouldn't you base that on players and team play rather than wether the name is pronounced with an 's' or 'k'.


Probably, and i was being a bit facetious, but when you've never had much of any exposure to any of the teams or players before, you've got to start somewhere.

I've seen FM live 8 times now...their shows are such a blast. EVERYONE dances. 14 to 40 year olds. My mom even loves them, and i took her the last time they were here in Atlanta (she stayed in the back). biggrin.gif

When i visited St. Michael's Mount several years ago, i came across a large oil painting of a seated elderly woman. The plaque read simply "Dolly Pentreath." Since then, i've come across a few accounts of the foul-mouthed "Fish Wife of Mousehole", and her tale is as captivating to me as those of King Arthur or of the Cornish giants.

Learn about the disputed last native speaker of the Cornish language:

he only use of the soft S pronunciation I know of
occurs in Sports Organisations Such as Oban Celtic Shinty Team Glasgow Celtic Football


Wow, Celtic FC is pronounced with a "s"? That really surprises and somewhat saddens me (i prefer the hard "k" sound as well). I'm trying to get more into international football and am looking to select a club to root for. I guess Rangers will be my new team.

Wow, nice. Hopefully she'll be able to get a college scholarship. thumbs_up.gif

Another example of the "s" pronunciation would be the Boston Celtics.

I've always pronounced with the hard "k" sound. Occasionally, i hear people say it the other way. Is one more correct than the other?

Thanks guys...Madadh, where in Maryland are you? As my avatar and sn suggest, I am a UMD alum who was originally born in Towson. I have a lot of friends in the Old Line state, and make it back for 3 or 4 football games a year.

The Blue Anchor in Helston is probably the oldest brew up in the UK, dating back to the 15th century. beer_mug.gif thumbs_up.gif

Wow, i'm so excited to have just found this site. My name's Jonny, and though I live in the U.S. (Georgia), my heart lives in the Celtic world. I can trace my mother's family, Callaway, back 11 generations to Cornwall, and I can't wait to go back there again.

I also have Scottish blood in me and loved backpacking there a few years ago.

Hmm...what else? My favorite beer is probably Belhaven, i love the traditional Irish/punk band Flogging Molly, and i wear a Celtic cross around my neck at all times.

I look forward to participating with you good folks on this great site!

*Cornish for "Good day!" I don't speak Kernewek, but i like knowing a few phrases
