I was pretty certain that's how Kathleen pronounced it. I was really expecting a reversal.
I thought I was the only person who noticed this, so I assumed I misheard her response.
This was mentioned earlier in the thread. Her intention on that final consonant is unclear, because she doesn't come down hard on it. It wouldn't have been fair to reverse.

Kathleen shared this through the archive and a correction suggestion:

Yes, I'm Kathleen from this episode. I challenged my "Somoza" answer during the first break (they encouraged us to speak up if we felt we had any problems with how things were going) and they discussed and made the call to give me the money back. Guess all those years working for lawyers came in handy!!!!!

UAE consists of 7 independent city-states, namely Abu Dhabi and Dubai. I don’t think that was a bad guess? Not really sure if the cities qualify as emirates?
Guess what the E stands for in UAE?
Lol yes. I was responding to OP who said Abu Dhabi was a bad guess. I get confused about UAE and other emirates, so if you were to ask me to name an emirate, any emirate - I'd have to go through some mental gymnastics before answering. I'm also a bit fuzzy on Middle East geography - but rest assured, I will remedy this!

Not namely. Including.

These are the seven emirates:
Abu Dhabi (capital)
Ajman
Dubai
Fujairah
Ras Al Khaimah
Sharjah
Umm Al Quwain
I'd rather cuddle then have sex. If you're into grammar, you'll understand.
