I absolutely hate when people say the word CARAMEL (like an ice cream topping) as CARMEL.... AHG!!! that drives me crazy! There are 2 A's in that word not one!!! I am from NY and thats how we say it but I moved to indiana and thats how they say it here and they tell me I am saying it wrong... and its a 3 syllable word CAR-A-MEL.... get it right!

My first thought was 'incorrectly' but since you've said that's wrong, I'll try again. My second thought is 'where is Correctly?' (i.e. the place that everyone pronounces this one word in). But then again, since the people in this fictional place of Correctly have to presumably pronounce more than one word, that can't be right either. So back to the original question -- suggest you buy the book 'Mother Tongue' by Bill Bryson and you will see that words are pronounced in all kinds of ways depending on region, and everyone's version of 'correct' is different. So, it depends where you are, and who 'everyone' is, and who is defining what is 'correct' or 'correctly.'

To answer your question according to your guidelines, the answer is none, in the English language.
There is no word that EVERYONE pronounces incorrectly except the word "incorrectly".

This one was asked just recently.

It is "incorrectly".

Of course, if you say "incorrectly" correctly did you say it correctly or incorrectly.
