I don't, but my USC mispronounces plenty of them

one...two...tree
one...two...tree

Sometimes when she calls me 'Darling' it sounds like 'dumbass.'

Maybe this is an American thing depending on where you live I guess...

My husband & his family will say "Roof" like "Rough".

Or "Roots" "Ruts".

My 84 yr old mom is a BIG Jeopardy fan,

and part of my daily routine when I get

home is to spend some time with her

watching Jeopardy.

My ex wife is Japanese, but my Thai wife

says, "Why don't you Japanese?

It's her favorite!"

What she means is you should go up and see

Jeopardy with your mom.

:lol:

How about how the Texans say oil? Or boil or foil or words like that? I can't even reproduce it. Baahhhl. :wacko:

My German husband has trouble with "fuzzy" and "fussy"-with his accent they both sound like the later. Sometimes I have to ask. ;)

He mispronounces "excuse" He says ex-eh-cuse. It's like that with most words containing x.

For Suj, it's exaggerate. He hasn't said it lately though, I wonder if he has got it now hehe. He would say it like exazerate. While able to pronounce most words correctly, that one has been an issue. lol
