To any radio or TV announcers in the area, Carlisle is pronounced “CarLISLE.”
Carlisle.
Again, Carlisle. Accent on the second syllable, not the first.
But who am I to talk? I’m “obviously not from Lancaster County,” as evidenced by my (now corrected) improper pronunciation of Turkey Hill (I emphasized “Turkey,” but “Hill” is stressed).
And I used to pronounce “Spooky Nook Road” like it’s spelled, not the correct Lancaster County pronunciation “Spukky Nuk Road” (I can’t even properly render this sound in text).
And I have no idea what the town name of Salunga means in German. Can any wise Lancastrians help me out here?
