minus-square@Justdaveisfine@midwest.sociallinkfedilink76•edit-21 month agoLa-a (Pronounced La-dash-ah) is the weirdest one I’ve seen
minus-square@otter@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglish22•edit-21 month agoI’ve seen that as La-ah. Somehow La-a is so much worse.
minus-square@Justdaveisfine@midwest.sociallinkfedilink22•1 month agoSeems the article is from 2008, and the La-a I know of was in pre-k in ~2015, so it seems someone named their kid based on the legend.

minus-square@Justdaveisfine@midwest.sociallinkfedilink2•1 month agoYeah the other reply noted the same thing. This would have been about ~2015 and she was in pre-k so someone must have named their kid based on the legend. I can’t recall if the girl was black or not but I don’t think she was.

minus-square@Akasazh@feddit.nllinkfedilink3•edit-21 month agoThe first time I read that it was le-a , which could be read as lea without the dash
