Until this US insanity got going, I hadn't realized that Americans have their own pronunciation of "Greenland."
Both the crazies and the normies there seem to say "GREEN-lund." rather than GREEN-land.
I guess it's similar to what some do to "Newfoundland" which gets mangled into new-FOWND-lund and NEWF-in-lund.
If you're near a Newfoundlander when someone says that they'll immediately correct them with newf-in-LAND! rather assertively.
