And Another Little Thing That Makes Me Shout At The Tv

[barry1010]

The mispronunciation of 'leverage'. It's surprising how often this word is used on tv and very few people pronounce it properly.

Any mispronunciations annoying you this week?

[ToraToraTora]

TBH, although the US pronunciations are annoying they are as nothing to our own northerners!

[ToraToraTora]

almost forgot, I had to call an insurance line a few times for a while and I always used to cringe when the recorded voice said "....acrut..." - instead of "accurate" - gawd help us if you are recording a message at least get someone with some semblance of diction!

Millefeuille = meelu fuy

The 'L' is pronounced , at least in Standard French anyway. Regional accents may differ

BTW...the US pronunciation of oregano is closer to Italian than the British version.

[ToraToraTora]

yeah but pasta, it is the job of the British to mispronounce all foreign words especially proper names.

[pastafreak]

Mwaahahaaa!

I wonder how mispronounciation works when you have to speak options into a recorded phone call.
