Kephart, how to pronounce his name...

When does a loan word gain perminant ownership status?
Machete is in the dictionary......

There’s a thought: what’s the pronunciation guidance for Kephart in the dictionary?

 

[Janne]

As Kephart was American, how would an American pronounce that name?

 

[Fadcode]

Its pronounced Kep as in Kept............and Heart
If you look at the video, even his own Granddaughter pronounces it like that.

Yes, I watched that video this afternoon... Her accent sounds very North Carolina, to me; I really like it. Reminds me of family over there, and the time I've spent there.

 

[Fadcode]

A very nice place, I've spent a bit of time over there myself, more on the Tennessee side, rather then the Carolinas, though I have visited Cherokee
a few time, love the Gt Smoky mountains, they know how to cater for campers over there without ripping them off.

 

[Tengu]

I would find someone called Kephart and ask them.

But Im sure his Grandaughters knows.

Mike Stewart pronounces it Kep-hart ... well, nearly. Sort of slurs over it to make a 'bv' sort of sound

Makes a good looking version of it too ... which just sent a twinge of panic through my wallet. That's what noodling on the DLT website gets you
