Not in polite society.

Never heard that about Brummagem Scryv, it's certainly a center for real jewelry, so it wouldn't be surprising....

One word - so much to love.

In St. Louis, there's a street named Goethe. Correctly pronounced it's ger-ta (or thereabouts).

As you can guess, the locals don't pronounce it like that. They use go-thee (with a th like thing).

There's Spero Kereiakes Park, in Bowling Green, KY.

Kereiakes - kerr-ee-AH-kuss
