Thanks lelliej, have clearly always spelt it wrong in the past . . . oh dear

No no, I am sorry but there is not one correct way to spell this cheese so you are perfectly within your right to spell it how you wish jdublya and not to consider that you have spelt it wrong in the past. This is from Chambers which shows that neither spelling should be considered 'wrong' :


Emmental or Emmenthal, noun a hard Swiss cheese, similar to Gruy�re, made in the Emmental or Emme valley.
