” Say Yamacraw” refers back to the appropriate pronunciation of the phrase “Yamacraw,” an American Indian tribe that inhabited the realm round Savannah, Georgia, within the 1700s. The Yamacraw individuals performed a major function within the founding of town of Savannah and have a wealthy cultural heritage.
Yamacraw is pronounced with three syllables: “YAH-muh-craw.” The stress is on the primary syllable, and the “a” within the second syllable is pronounced with a brief “a” sound, as within the phrase “cat.”
