Yearly reminder to have a Blessed Samhain and to tell all my followers that it's pronounced SAH-WIN If you're gonna do Gaelic greetings, at least get them right or ye end up sounding like a bampot!

Depends though. In Dublin it has more of a SOW sound to begin with. But anything is better than SAM HAYN.

Yeah in the Irish its SOW-AHN. Difference in dialects. Our word for November is still Samhna/Samhain, but even across ireland pronouncians can change for gaelige.

My biggest fight still is in March when Americans call it Patty's Day. But I suppose I should take my Celtic Heritage more seriously and fight the Samhain pronouncian more. Especially as I'm gonna treat tomorrow as a spiritual new years eve.

I used to get told off for saying 'Hogmanay' by my ex: "Just say it's NEW YEARS EVE" so now I'm just constantly bigging up my Scottish side!

Celtic cultures have a right to be brought up and celebrated. I'm gonna guess that was not the worst that douchenozzle ever did. Since learning that St. Brigit was a transformation of Brigid, a Celtic goddess, I've observed every may day in her badass honour.

We celebrate Burn's Night every January! @ChrisMarlow666 had the honour of reading Address to a Haggis and doing the carving. He did it in olde Scottish and didn't even complain about the shot of whiskey after.
Realised then I could celebrate my heritage comfortably!
