I didn't read through the whole thread but when I hear someone say "walla" instead of "voila". It happens all the time on TV.

Ax instead if ask, it seems to be the most common. Oh and when did four become fo? I never got that memo.

Sorry Masterag, the "l" is silent in salmon. Drives me batty when I hear someone use the "l" annunciation. Now, if you're referring to the high school in Slidell (Salmen), that's different...and I think, proper...to annunciate the "l".

Simular instead of similar

I noticed about 3 years ago that my grandmother (approaching 100 years old) says "phantom" for fathom.
Obviously did not have the heart to correct her.
