Blame english instead of people probouncing the wrong way. English don't give a fucking clue about pronounciation only using letters.

So I can pronounce Blamei as Lemmy. [B silent, a - e sound, mm and m can be pronounced same, and ei can be read as y]

Well probouncing is pronounced as pronouncing
