Don't blame you. I just use "Wooster-sauce" and most people know what
I
mean. Nice stuff, though.


The closest attempt that is sort of easy is "wister-sheer," which if
said quickly enough generally isn't noticed. This joins a whole raft
of words that are tricky for some people: asterisk, nuclear,
marzipan...
I think asterisk is my favorite of all for weird mispronunciations,
tho,
probably because I spent so much time in the computer industry.

pavane

What about 'turmeric' - so many seem remove the r altogether, making it
'tumeric', which almost sounds like a cancerous by-product or summink.
That
one, for some reason, has always bugged me a little... heh...

pronouncing something is such a drag.
looking for the queens english, is quite rude.

Queens English? Hells man I'm from Lancashire LOL!

we all r doing our best.
shorthand sometimes.

I often even type in the vernacular. ',;~}~

in my job i get to speak to 3 people with a lisp.
the idea is the matter. the pronounciation is irrelevant.

a canuck in usa is always asked to say ROOF.
and they laugh.
but we laugh when they ask us. because we have to ask your definition.
put your touque on in the yukon, cuz it's cold out there, in the winter.

actually do have the queen of england visiting edmonton on monday.
celebrating a 100 years of alberta.

YOU might notice the queen, is not really capable of being rude.

She ain't my queen whether she wants to be or not, damned parasites...

a book was written in the usa, called amy vanderbuilt's book of etiquette.
perhaps you should consult it.

well by all means BRAG to your friends you have NO faults, and unless they
are scum, they will nail you to an appropriate tree.

Heheh, I have SHIT loads of faults and don't mind a bit admittin to that.

I'm really quite a tolerant person, just don't ever pronounce 'turmeric' as
'chewmeric' to me and I'll stay that way ',;~}~

relax, enjoy.
if ya got better then PRINT IT.
by the way i am the true human
i always have faults, and people love me cuz i just keep trying.
those who never try, never fail.

good day and grand weekend we will all have

Cool - hope you had a guddun.
