I think Orkney is never plural. Even though they are the Orkney Islands, they’re never ‘the Orkneys’. Just Orkney.

Also the inhabitants are given to saying they're Orcadian, not Scottish.

On one of the channels, a reporter kept talking about catteries in the context of the Middle East conflict. It made no sense.
Only when someone else started talking did it become clear. I pronounce Qataris sort of like this ‘cutAHrays’. Not catteries.
Perhaps the solution does lie with catteries. Get all sides into one where they can stroke kittens while discussing their differences.
