I've been wondering this for thirty years now: How do you pronounce "Amoskeag"?
Thanks DNW |

AM-uh-skaig.
Accent the syllables like 'platypus' or 'pantomime'.

"Amoskeag" is what the Native Americans called Manchester. Wouldn't it be interesting if they returned to the original name? Amoskeag, New Hampshire. Neat, huh? I'm a dork, I know.
