what mispronunciation of words irks you?

[givemeaspell]

aks is mine.......instead of ask.  Why can't people get that right and it is quite common, also picked up alot so I don't get why people can't say it correctly.

This is a good thread eh.

Yes Eh

[soul_art]

This isn't a mispronounciation and it makes me giggle more than irks me... when middle aged people use words like "awesome"  words used by kids etc.  It's like a verbal version of a comb over ! LOL

[2106greencat]

Yes Eh

I dunno BUT

😉

:^O

See I find BUT amusing.

It's hot eh ?? That's a question, yes ?

It's hot but - WTF - but you know how to get cool?, but you can't make up your mind ? but .... but what???

:-x My pet hate

[bright.ton42]

not a mispronunciation, more of an accent, but I hate the way the southern states say gell instead of girl

Just wondering which southern states you mean?  I've never heard that in Melbourne, unless you mean Tassy, lol?

(Unless I say it myself and don't know     😉  )

Canadians like saying eh/ay at the end of sentences... 

"What's going on eh?"

Bright.ton I've noticed on a lot of the game shows so I think melbourne, also some news readers which I think were Sth Aus. It's not something I hear in northern nsw.

[the*scarlet*pimpernel]

perhaps it's not regional, maybe it's more generational and it's the way all younger folk say it.

Same as the americans say al-oo-minum instead of aloo-minium, I don't think they're right in that. Or Argent-eyne. It should be Argent-eene. That's what I reckon.

I SO agree Icy.

Another one that gets me is Americans (and others) who say nucular instead of nuclear.  

My MIL always says K-marK, not K-marT.  Really gets my goat, especially when I politely corrected her and she says, yes I know it's wrong but that's how I say it. X-(
