Gillywater

in my mind (re: the source of the name) was of the flower.  That's what 
comes of  reading words that you've never heard pronounced.  And it's 
still the picture I carry around in my internal version of the stories -
 not to say anyone else's  version is wrong - simply that in _my_ HP 
world, it's a drink flavored with gillyflowers, or something resembling 
the scent of gillyflowers. :-)

Potioncat:
Me too.

Didn't you say, Zanooda, that this was for a translation? I wouldn't 
worry too much about how Engish-speakers pronouce it. Can you come up 
with a flowery sounding drink that might also reflect gillyweed?

What will gillyweed be called?
