What is the correct way of pronouncing the word "palm" in "palm top"? Should I "ignore" the "l" and say something like "päm"?

Paaaahm- you ignore the L sound and elongate the A sound. The a in this case is pronounced as in the A in "Answer"

yup, the l is sort of silent, but the a goes as in the a in "darling". (ä, as you wrote it, would sound more like the e in desk). So.. pahhm is more like it!

yes, pronounce it as "pam". The "L" is silent.
