Celtic spelling is a bitch, LOL! Nothing like English. It reminds me a bit
of Hebrew.

I am sorry, but I have to make a couple of spelling corrections here that
are bugging me like nails on a chalk board.
Sem, you have the pronounciation right it seems, but the spelling is wrong.
Samhain and Beltane are Gaelic words and as such are not spelled the way we
would think for English phonetics. Please get this right. If someone does
want to look up what you are speaking of so that they could learn, they will
have a hard time finding anything with that spelling.
Thanks
Hey Bridget, You totally cracked me up and surprised me. I will tell you why
later off list.
