    Nevermind that, what I wanna know is, how come Americans seem to be unable to pronounce Las Vegas correctly? They say "Los Vegas". Whereas the English are able to say "Las Vegas."

    I think that's a bit odd, as Las Vegas is in America, you'd think they'd be able to pronounce the name of a city better than people from many miles away in the UK.

    Nobody calls its Los Vegas here. Or Las Vegas.

    It's just Vegas.

    Mind you my yankee kids had quite a laugh when we were told the code of the exit gate at our hotel in Galway last year. It was Tree-Tree-Tirty-Tree.

    Crips instead of Crisps is the one that wrecks my head, heard it often in Finglas and Ballyfermont.

    Post over in one of the Dublin forums and ask them.

    I doubt you'll get on too well though.
