What word do you feel is mispronounced the most often?

Answer 1

There is NO "t" in the pronunciation of Often!!!!!! Pet peeve

Answer 2

my name

Answer 3

There are two that drive me CRAZY:

1) Nuclear (Often mispronounced nu-cu-lar. There is no vowel and therefore no vowel sound between the c and l!)
2) Converse (People often say "coversate," which is not an actual word!)

Answer 4

"Pronunciation" different than for that, English all human beings isn't that undesirable at pronuncation, mutually as while in comparison with the persons. in spite of the very shown fact that, you may desire to declare that persons have their own language, spilt-off from British English, purely as a results of very fact the Geordie (coming from around Newcastle), Yorkshire and Scottish dialects differentiate from "Queen's English".

Answer 5

Nuclear--I always hear people say Nuke-EE-Lar
Color-- A friend of mine pronounces it "Collar" like a collar on a shirt
Crayon--this same friend pronounces it "crown" like a crown a king would wear

When I call about my bank acct or anything like that and they ask for my ss# they always pronounce the first word-- SHocial
