I need to learn how the Gaelic expression, anam cara is pronounced. It's written with a cedilla-like accent over the "c," but I can't find a pronouncing guide. BTW, the term means, "soul friend."
A prolific poster over at the snopes Urban Legends Message Board (http://www.ulrp.com/message/ultimatebb.php) uses the screen name "Pogue Mahone". I imagine he'd have been asked to use a different name if he'd used the English equivalent.
I also imagine some radio stations would refuse to play their records if they knew the meaning of the name of the band called "The Pogues".
