#It’s not that I’m surprised this farce of a show didn’t research how to correctly pronounce the word but it’s just one more imbecilic thing

Me, a Scot: Oh so 4x07 is going to have a character named Samhain, that’s neat, I wonder if they’ll say it the Scottish way or the Irish way
Top-billed CW actors Jensen Ross AckIes and Jared Tristan PadaIecki, saying it: SAM HAYNE
Me, a Scot:
#Spn#4x07#It’s SAH-vin by the way. At least in Scottish Gaelic#The “mh” makes a V sound (roughly)#In Irish Gaelic it’s SA-win I believe but I’m not as familiar there#Irish comrades feel free to chime in <3#My posts#Scotlandnatural#It’s not that I’m surprised this farce of a show didn’t research how to correctly pronounce the word but it’s just one more imbecilic thing#To say nothing of Sam’s description of Samhainn as a holiday lmfaooo#Also I’m very aware this is far from the worst adaptational affront the show has done with non-Christian cultures. Like I’m also desi#An entire half of my family is Hindu. I did unfortunately witness Hammer of the Gods#To say nothing of every other butchered culture and traditional beliefs this show fucked over in some deeply upsetting ways#But every end of October I spend on here I ALWAYS remember 4x07 and having to listen to those Texas men#say SAM HAYNE#repeatedly. So here we are lol#To be clear I’m not a pagan or Wiccan or anything I have a passing interest in historical Celtic paganism but that’s about it
