This one grinds my gears:
Earl is someone's name.
Oil is a lubricant or used for cooking.
Those that can't help saying erl don't say "tin ferl keeps food from sperl." Why?

"nuc yoo ler"
This one drives me nuts.
It's spelled, N-U-C-L-E-A-R, not N-U-C-Y-OO-L-A-R, and it's pronounced exactly how it's spelled, dimwits.

how do people mispronounce this?
Posted on 5/4/17 at 2:07 am to Tchefuncte Tiger
people not pronouncing the "L" in "salmon," it's there for a reason.

They are actually saying "should've" which is a contraction for should have.

"Prolly" either spoken or typed is annoying

No, they are actually typing "should of" in place of "should have" because it sounds similar to "should've" and they don't know the difference.
