[Spellyans] 'stranger'

[Craig Weatherhill]

It was indeed, Owen - that "air" vowel sound we have in West Cornwall,  
I think the "straight" one rather than the pitch-bend variety heard in  
"shaft".  This isn't easy to describe but if you can imagine saying  
"share-eft" (with no R pronunciation, of course), then you're close to  
it.
