I can't say Mexico or Mexican. It comes out as Messico or Messican.

I hate when people mispronounce, Often.
The "t" is silent.

You're all wrong. It's man-aze.

Also, I bet 3% (at most) of people in LA can say 'wasps' right. Lol

Also I hate when people around here say warsh instead of wash. Or when Yankees say bolth instead of both.

I'm pretty sure it should be "words you pronounce incorrectly."

Had a good friend who used to pronounce milk as melk. It would bug the shite out of me.

I work with a guy who says red instead of rid. I don't know why that gets under my skin. Maybe because of how he says 'literally' and 'like' once or twice every sentence.

Sometimes I damn near have a nervous breakdown when I start to pronounce it while talking. I usually say jif, then gif with a hard g, then I'll say, you know, those moving pictures.

The worst part is most people just nod their head and acknowledge they understand, but they don't tell me which one is correct, so I end up having to do the same shite next time it comes up.

Pronouncing gif has taken minutes off of my life.

Crouton

Rudy's friend Bud from the Cosby show called them 'crow(rhymes with brow)-tons' on the episode where Heathcliff takes the kids to eat at a fancy restaurant. For some reason, I latched on to this and have said it the same way all my life.
