Sometimes you need to pay close attention to the context. After we moved to a place outside of West Alexandria I heard people say “Westellic” now and then. I thought it a town somewhere in the area. Then a new friend was introducing me to someone. “This here’s Patrick. He lives over by Westellic.” Ha!
