Alan Caffrey Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Hello all, simple question here, how is the tile of the jig Gillian's Apples pronounced? I live in an isolated part of the States so have no one to ask here. I have an Aunt Gillian in Britain and her name is said the same as Jillian; so Gillian' Apples, is it Jill.. or Gill.. (as in fish gill) ? Best Wishes, Alan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthatcher61 Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I believe it is pronounced 'Jillen's Apples'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larryo Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I can only vouch for how it is pronounced in Ireland, and that is as in Jillian. Nice tune also ! Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Hi My Step-daughter would be miffed if she was called 'G'illian not 'J'illian but then again I know of at least 2 people using the 'Gill' pronounciation. But does it really matter to the 'tune' which version you use just enjoy playing it chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
