There isn't one in Edinburgh so I never had the pleasure of debating what it was called. however looking at it i'd call it Primark. Now i'm in a city with one I kind of float between the two because everyone calls it something different.

Is it lOndis or lUndis?

Where I come from it tends to be the posher people who say prImark, but I don't think either way is really a posh way of saying it, it just depends who taught you to say the word originally I guess.

primark or preeemark?
