What mispronounced word would you like to beat people for saying incorrectly?

Question

I'll post a few:

Mischievous -- It's not CHEEVE EEE US.
Reese's (as in Peanut Butter). It's Ree Says, not Ree Sees
Template -- It's Tem Plet, not tem plate.

Answer 1

My mom says "waRsh" and it bugs the crap out of me. "Jim, would you warsh the dishes" "It's WASH mah!! there's no goddamn R in it!!!"

Answer 2

I wouldn't say they were saying it wrong, it depends where they come from.
My boyfriend is from the north of England and he says Wam instead or warm. It isn't wrong at all, it is a difference in accents and dialect.

It IS tem-plate not tem-plet!!................. just to argue a point!!!

Answer 3

I don't get so pissed off about pronunciation...something that really bothers me is when people write "kewl"...it's not an abbreviation for "cool" because they are both 4 letters long...so what is the point of spelling it wrong??

Answer 4

I am from Utah, and most Utahns drop the n sound in ount words such as mountain and fountain (said mou-tan and fou-tan).

Answer 5

Sherbert instead of sherbet, and poinsetta instead of poinsettia, and kinniegarden instead of kindergarten. Okay. That's three. I know. I can't help it.

Answer 6

it's ESS presso, not EX presso

AND

it's deteri OR ate, not deteri ate

the greater irony is that if i acted on this impulse, i'd get arrested for domestic violence.

Answer 7

Nuclear is NOT Nucular

Answer 8

I hate, hate, hate when people pronounce caramel "CAR-muhl". It's "CARE-uh-mel", you ignoramuses!

Also, it amuses me when people call the "automatic" system to check their "credick" card balance. LOL

Answer 9

Li-berry.

It also bugs me when people say, "I could care less," when they mean, "I couldn't care less."

Answer 10

Colloquialism- its not COLONIALISM

Lol funny how people tryna be dumb or theyre just REALLY DUMB
