Mispronunciation that bother you

(1/20) > >>

hbelkins:
Anybody got a list of mispronunciations that really get under your skin?

For me, it's fentanyl. The final syllable is pronounced "nil," not "nall." Yet most everyone says "fentanall" and not "fentanil."

1995hoo:
"Govur-mint" and "env-eye-ur-mint" (ignoring the midword "n" in both cases–"government" and "environment") are two I hear fairly often.

"Nucular" is another.

"Artic" and "Antartic"/"Antartica" are ones I hear less often.

moot, not mute
