My worst example was the word GIF pronounced like the peanut butter instead of properly as in Graphical. It’s worse because Amanda Montell was writing a linguistics book about the history of language and words.
Recent example was “eschew” which is pronounced Eh-shoo but the narrator said “Eskew” and it confused me so much I had to Google it to make sure I hadn’t been saying it wrong my whole life. What exmaples have you found?
An audiobook of Good Omens was ruined by the reader pronouncing Anathema (a nah the muh) as Anthemena (anthem eena).
Oh God. I didn’t know that word when I first read the book but at least I pronounced it Anna-theema in my head. Anthem-eena is unconscionable
I did the same
