Meard Street pronunciation

[edit]

As a member of the family who owned the Leasehold of nos 4 and 6 Meard Street as L Negin and son later N. Negin Dyers and Cleaners and Alteration Tailors from approximately 1910 - 1965 I must suggest a correction or addition to this entry. I visited my grandmother there in 1935; I am 92.

The local pronunciation of the name of the street always rhymed with 'beard' not 'heard'.

The pun referred to may be one made by strangers. Some indication of the local pronunciations should be added. 51.6.26.50 (talk) 09:19, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
