Oops, I've always pronounced Ibera as Iberia, I never noticed it didn't have an 'i' in it!!

I've always pronounced graeca 'graysha' and ibera 'iybeira'.... :s
I'd rather stick with my horsfield. At least this way I get to feel slightly superior from time to time when I get to correct other people's spelling of 'horsefield' lol.

Thank you for this thread!!!
