This "Sarah" discussion is giving me the giggles. I never thought for a minute that Sarah (sara), Farrah and Mara didn't rhyme.

I know Mara can go either with a long or short "a" sound, but not Sarah or Farrah.

I always thought Mara was not like the others. The other Mara's I know are all Mar-uh. -- nm - pmb Aug 11, 13:21 2

- I can understand that, but have never known a Mara other than here. - TWuG Aug 11, 13:25
Well, Sarah *can* go the other way, but it's uncommon. -- nm - mara Aug 11, 13:20 8

  - That there are still people that think she'd be a good Veep, let alone President, baffles me. - TWuG Aug 11, 13:23 3
    - my sis in law loves her. I keep calling her Sarah Quitter and she gets really mad at me. -- nm - Remlik Aug 11, 13:25
    - that video proves to me that she can't make it through a national primary. -- nm - Reagen Aug 11, 13:24 1
      - I'm not sure America isn't stupid enough to elect her. -- nm - TWuG Aug 11, 13:26
- hey-oh! -- nm - JaxSean Aug 11, 13:20
what's funny is, i think every single person thinks all those words rhyme. - TFox Aug 11, 13:20 2
- Well, I pronounce "mara" differently, but I recognize it *could* be pronounced like Farrah or Sarah. (nm) - musubi, pronounciation guide Aug 11, 13:22
- the "Mary merry marry" thing is always funny to me. I cannot make those words sound differently to me. -- nm - Reagen Aug 11, 13:22
