    I don't mispronounce English words. Once in a while I will pronounce the word 'forte' 'fort'. I get odd looks.

    Rutabaga (for some reason I always pronounce it "rutabager")


    Bonus - I try really hard not to pronounce "wash" as "warsh" (and I ain't even from Texas)

    Rutabager is how Brits would pronounce it. Warsh is how trump supporters pronounce wash.

    You mean like MISPRONUNCIATE - I'm sure I noticed that in the White House dictionary when I was looking up misappropriation.

    Dampflokomotive - if I had to announce that one was entering the station, it would have happened before I could complete the issuing of my vorwarnung of the fact.
