LeeDal
Who ?
Well apparently LIDL ....
It seems that according to their current adverts, myself and everyone I know has been wrong about this company for years.
We call them Lid-al, but the advert announcer says Lee-dal.
Does anyone else pronounce it like that ?

Re: LeeDal
I was saying e. l. e. y. e. d. e. e. y. e. l. one letter at a time.
My excuse is that I've only had about 3 hours a night sleep for the last week and and even I need more sleep than that.
add.... it seems to be pronounced more like liddul up here in Manc Land.

We say it like Lidul in Yorkshire as well. Probably the only thing that u lot on the other (read: wrong ) side of the pennines agree with us on

Re: LeeDal
It goes the same for Primark or Pre-mark as people pronounce it.
