HelpRe: maHAYLyah is *NOT* a mispronunciation
in reply to a message by Lillian
sorry if I offended you in some way. I speak modern Aramaic so I was simply giving the proper transliteration to the extent of my knowledge with regards my language. didn't mean to step on anyone's toes.

Okay, no big, it's all good
I apologize if I came off sounding obnoxious. It just happens to be close to my heart is all.
"I wish I spoke whale..." I mean, modern Aramaic. How cool is that. ;)

no problem.:)
it *may* have originated as a mispronunciation way back when, but if generations of your family have pronounced it a certain way along with all the other people on your side of the country I am definitely willing to accept it as an alternate way.
I remember I was irritated when I found out "Rhea" is pronounced "Ree-ah". I decided to heck with it, I am going to pronounce it Ray-ah anyways.;)
