Could be worse. I once heard the retirement speech for an Army senior NCO in which the MC twice called her the "eppy-toem" of professionalism. I was standing at attention at the time, trying desperately not to burst out laughing.

A friend of mine in college pronounced it that way once when he was just goofing. I still double-clutch when I see it written because of that. It does give me a laugh and make me think of him though.

i found out in the last few years that I've been deeply mispronouncing a number of words because i only ever read them and they never came up in conversation and then heard them for the first time in audiobooks

can't recall which now but it's been at least a dozen where when i figured out what he said i immediately began to wonder if i ever said it in public

a lot were people or place names ie historical figures though so even possible narrator got it wrong and not me

Had a friend in HS confuse me when he said "That guy's a total sham-million."

"Wat?"

"You know, he tells everyone what they want to hear. He changes his colors like a shamillion."

"Oh, a chameleon."

Turns out he had only ever read the word and had never heard it used.

Wonder what he thought the Culture Club song was about.

Not to show my age, but I think that song hit the radio a couple of months after this discussion. I do recall teasing him by singing it with his pronunciation.
07-19-2020 , 11:19 AM
I remember not understanding the lyric at all, nor caring.
