Bala-tro, not Ba-lottro.

"It is called 'baggel'. I lived in New York."

PIH-cawn instead of PEE-can for pecan. CAR-mel instead of KARA-mel for caramel. AWN-t instead of ANT for aunt. VAH-se instead of VAY-se for vase.

Which ones are right/wrong could probably start another Civil War

I sometimes like mispronouncing words to point out their sillyness or for fun.

Sometimes a window is called a winddoor. Go and ask someone to open/close the windoor and play it 100% serious straight as you point to it, its great.

Sometimes a knife is pronounced kuh-nife. Sometimes Arkansas is pronounced ar-kan-sas.

I like to have fun every now and again.

escape for me, I tend to say it differently every time I say it. No idea why

Yosemite rhymes with Vegemite. Change my mind.

US American. I've lived overseas a long time and pronounce the 'h' in 'herbs' because, as Eddie Izzard once said, "it's got a fucking 'h' in it". I don't know when I switched but my mom laughed at me when we had a call recently.

One I only noticed a couple years ago: turmeric (was saying, and still frequently hear) 'toomeric'.

Solder. I taught myself, never really talked to anyone about it, and for like a decade, I pronounced it like it's spelled. With an L.

I just can't break the habit

I'm German. One day my house was being renovated and they were working with jackhammers to remove parts of the facade. It was incredibly loud and I couldn't bear it. I lived close to university and had recently stopped working in one of the institutes. I knew though that my former colleagues had couches in some of their offices so I thought I'd give them a visit. I walked over to the institute and greeted my Australian former coworker. I explained about the noise in my house and said I was "looking for asylum". Knowing the word "asylum" only from written language, I had no idea it was not actually pronounced "ay suh lum". He asked "you're looking for what?" as he obviously hadn't understood. I repeated "ay suh lum" confidently and he politely said "ah". Not long after, I learned the correct pronunciation of asylum and that memory has haunted me ever since. It's been almost 10 years but I still cringe about it.

I like to pronounce Numeric like Tumeric

So I just realized a few years ago that “join” is one syllable like “coin.” Should make sense, right?

I’d always pronounced it “joy-in.” I still have to consciously change my pronunciation to say it right.

I also learned a couple months ago that I trill the ‘r’ in “three.” I don’t really know how to make the “thr” sound without a slight trill. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Bona fide. It's latin, you say it Bow-nah Fee-day.

I pronounce spigot as "spicket" but that's normal where I'm from.

My mom had a couple of weird ones that took me a while to unlearn:

Stipend = "stipp-ind"
Antibiotics = "antee-BEE-otics"

I pronounce azure as “uh jzer” with emphasis on the second syllable and most other people say “aa jzer” with emphasis on the first.
