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 just heard this on Glass Sword, the sequel to Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard. I was momentarily confused.
I don’t understand how a professional voice actor could say that, or that no one in the studio recording it or editing it would pick up on it.
