So I'll be talking about my family Thursday, and I had to go to one of those websites that pronounce words for you so I could say "Foment" correctly.
"Fo-MENT" is American.
"FO-ment," British.
I'm with the British on this one.
And, yes, it's never good to have to learn how to say foment in connection with your ancestors.
