There is a town, Nevada, that’s pronounced “ne-Vay-da”. I think it’s in Missouri, if memory serves.
I’ve been to Coloraydo. Lovely state if you like mountains and that sort of thing. ![]()
In mid-40s, with the horsethief and murderer Fremont as standard bearer, came assorted colorful trappers, Missouri-types and so forth, who were not inclined to culturally respect anything Hispanic, so I reckon the mis-pronunciation has been going on since those days.
I wondered where the Fremont formation got it’s name. It’s nasty stuff, limestone that weathers into sharp points that rip up your hiking boots and skin alike.
