USC - What English Word does your SO mispronounce most often?

[slim 1,525]

I seriously had a harder time understanding the Britons I worked with in the military than the French. They were both speaking English - I guess.

When she wants to say "darling I am a little crazy" in a playful way, she says "Darling I am cyclic."

The word she is looking for is "psychotic."

(talking about her job)

She said:

I have to help "X" because he's a "coople."

I was wondering if this had something to do with "couple" inferring nepotism.

Turns out she meant "cripple."

I said we usually say "handicapped."

[thongd4me 69]

Proudly, these are two words which she did confuse in the past,

but since working in a major supermarket deli department, doesn't

mix up now (except when customers say one of them too fast).

Mortadella (sausage)

Mozzarella (cheeze)

My English OH tried to tell me about the little "bazzle" plant that he had in his kitchen. I told him I didn't know what kind of plant that was and that maybe we don't have those in America.

He was talking about basil.

Same here, along with several others! We get in arguments all the time on who is correct. I always say that the English may have made up the language, but Americans perfected it!

[thongd4me 69]

OK this one is a stretch - "Husband, use the dush machine!"

Translation: "Darling, please use the dust machine."

More precice: "OK vacuum, now!"

my husband struggles with the letters v, l, and r. what makes that hilarious is that his football team is littlepooh.

yes that's right folks he likes liverpool. although typically he replaces v's with w's. wisa, wegetable etc. he can say them correctly IF he slows down. then it becomes: VVVVVVVVVVISA, VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVegetable. it's pretty cute.

as a non native english speaker i struggle with a few words myself but *ahem* according to my husband it's ok because "you can find another words"
