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?
I listened to an audiobook where the narrator said the formula for sodium chloride is NaC1 (it is NaCl - the narrator obviously misread the L as a 1)
mmm the most delicious spice, sodium carbon. i love impossible chemicals!
