Don't worry, we know how to pronounce the name of the place with the palace.Originally Posted by shootingstar
There's no palace in VerSAILS, Ohio.
There's no piazza in MILE-an, Ohio.
There are no mountains in LIME-a, Ohio (pronounced like the beans, for that matter) and no fountain in BelFOUNtain, Ohio.
And if you want to pronounce the name of our state Oh-hi-oh, we won't correct you.
But for sheer poetry, read some Gerard Manley Hopkins some time (who was not from Ohio)...
Don't you mean the Ponte dei sospiri?
