Peter, of course you are a Native speaker and all, but "Leo org. online Dictionary" and Wiki spell it Himalaya.....PeterB wrote:Actually Anna that has become the accepted name for that range of mountains...they are in fact the HIMALYAS prounced him-ahl-yass
Wiki:the Himalayas pl. [geog.] der Himalaja auch: Himalaya
I may be wrong, but other google researches also speak of the Himalaya!The Himalaya Range or Himalaya Mountains (pronounced /ˌhɪməˈleɪ.ə/ or /hɪˈmɑːlᵊjə/,[1][2] Sanskrit: literally, "abode of snow", Sanskrit: Devanagari: हिमालय), usually called the Himalayas or Himalaya for short, is a mountain range in Asia, separating the Indian subcontinent from the Tibetan Plateau. By extension, it is also the name of a massive mountain system that includes the Karakoram, the Hindu Kush, and other, lesser, ranges that extend out from the Pamir Knot.
Its different when we 'argue'. Of course only like cultivated Buddhists argue.Metta-4 wrote:This is the only place I've ever been in my entire life where people will argue over a piece of chocolate.

Since the name is two Sanskrit words, neither pronunciation is correct. him ALL ee a is the correct way to pronouce it.PeterB wrote:They are both correct in a sense Anna...you are quite correct in that the usual pronuciation is four sylables with the stress on the third, Him a LAY a. but those Brits who have been there there and Brit Tibetan Buddhists tend to say it with three sylables with the emphasis on the second Him AL yass....
I did not see this earlier. All I can say is way, way too much information.PeterB wrote:Why not indeed...without wanting to get too graphic, I find a little chocolate aids a certain vital function in the removal of solid waste. My gut likes it, and in fact the literature says that it "promotes a smooth peristaltic action " all that AND it tastes good.
I don't believe anyone made those suggestions. You posted that you had weight control issues:PeterB wrote:I like chocolate. I dont want to not want chocolate ..thanks all the same. Sheesh!

Given that, I thought you might appreciate a heads up to a potential way to satisfy your chochlate cravings with fewer calories.PeterB wrote:Anyhoo back to the topic....I have constant weight issues...but enjoy a bit of chocolate now and then without feeling the need to self flagellate or wring my hands afterwards.
