[Lily_Evans]

[emily824]

exactly...just like
sean not
seeon lol-*

[Lily_Evans]

lol, that's what I used to think!

[Gengi]

I'll just stick to calling him Sea-mus, thanks. :)

[.:~*Shuiliya*~:.]

I thought they called him See-muss... oh well.  I'll stick to my way, too ^_^
I'm still bedazzled on how Sean is supposed to be pronounced 'Shawn'  *shrug*

[Gengi]

I know. o.O; That's weird....how do they get Shawn out of Sean? Looks like it sounds more like 'seen'.

[.:~*Shuiliya*~:.]

That's what I've always thought...

[emily824]

it's an irish thing....

[Lily_Evans]

it's an irish thing....

yeah it is, you can tell Seamus is irish....

[emily824]

ya i know! lol and Sean.....hey please post more of ur story! ;D

[MrsRadcliffe0480]

It's spelt "Sean" if you're Irish but "Shawn" if you're... not lol. Shay-mus?? That's really odd. I always called him See-mus.

[emily824]

i did for the first book...then my irish instints came in, and i was reading and it was clear to me that it was....'Shay mus'

[.:~*Shuiliya*~:.]

Wait... then wouldn't Seamus be 'Shaw-mus' because Sean has the same 'Sea' part, but isn't pronounced 'Shay-ne'. ???

[emily824]

no..it's different, it depens on what consinents is after the vowl....

[Lily_Evans]

I have a great uncle Seamus, And it's pronounced:


"Shay-Mus"
