Talk:chamois

It appears the word is pronounced differently if it is an animal (chamwa) or if it is the hide (chami). Hence the request for IPA symbols...zigzig20s 14:50, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, though my guess would be that both senses were formerly pronounced "shammy" and the animal sense (being learned as chamois don't exist in Britain) was later re-Frenchified. 178.4.151.236 18:32, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
