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… don’t actually think that’s wrong. My understanding was that there were two etymologies and definitions for metis: the French one, which can be pronounced meɪˈtiː or meɪˈtiːs and means a mixed-race person; and the Greek, pronounced ˈmiːtɪs, which basically means street smarts.
