When I moved here, I was in the local 'Spoons and saw a framed poster about Keith Emerson, from which I learned that he was born in Todmorden.
Are you sure about that?

1. Wouldn't a sledgehammer provide more accurate results?
2. What happened that specifically required hitting someone with a hammer to find out if they were dead?

Plenty of languages pronounce the final ‘e’ of a word as a separate syllable. Given that the word comes from Aztec or Mexican roots it’s no surprise really.
