This past hurricane got me thinking about words that you read/say one way only to find out that you aren't even close on the pronunciation. What words have you said wrong
until someone corrected you? Joaquin definitely got me!

In speech, I always drop a syllable from Mississippi. "Miss-ippi "

I usually catch myself but about one in ten times it comes out with only two syllables.
I read it wrong for a long time before hearing it.
Archepetryx too.

I still say "by-ah-pic" like you would say biography or biopsy. I don't care if it's wrong.
