Don't laugh!

OK, so we're going to be going to the Norfolk show next weekend on the lookout for a snake for hubby, most likely an anery stripe. I must have read thousands of posts on here by now and written about our anery Corno loads but of course it's all written word so here's my question:

*deep breath*





How do you pronounce anery? Reading it I've always thought of it as 'a-nery' with the a sound being like acorn, but is it actually said more like ann-ery with the a being like in apple? As that's how I assume anerythristic is pronounced...

*feel stupid now*

You're quite close to the Suffolk border(?), so it's either Aaaaaahn-ery, or Arrrrr-nery...

I've been here 19 years and haven't picked it up either Both my kids were born here and speak with a Scottish accent the same as both me & OH, although my 14 yr old does speak with a Suffolk accent at school but not at home.

I say ah-nery and ah-mel, no emphasis on the "a". Though I have met people who say "ay-mel", to me it just sounds odd lol.
