What is the most often mispronounced word in the English language???

[Bubba700]

throwing my vote in for the word "for" listen the majority of people say fur

 

[dragon12]

How about "Alzheimers" (disease) being pronounced Old Timers or All Timers. That one ticks me off.

 

[EventsInTheChamber]

[POLZIN]

Norfolk....those clowns in Nebraska say "Norfork"....WTF?

Cummins.....I see many of you retard call it "Cummings"...again..WTF?

 

[Gone Sleddin]

How about "regardless"....so many people say "irregardless"...no such word!

this one reminded me of another one. "unthawed". had a half hour discussion with some morons at the bar one night that were going to go home and unthaw some food to eat.

[captjacksparrow]

My personal fave is, Yutes. Instead of youths, from My Cousin Vinny, a classic.

 

[whittaker727]

Supposedly~not supposivly, supposingly, supposably and who knows how many more.

 

[Sidehiller]

coupon - coopon

 

[Big Gun]

Being I'm a Minimalsnowtan, I'd say it's got to be Favre - Farve.

I'm with winter brew on the February - Febuary/Febberary though- that's got to be more than just a regional thing like some of the others mentioned. Another good one would be damn - dam, most people can't even seem to swear properly. "God didn't dam it, the beavers did!"

 

[Big Gun]

this one reminded me of another one. "unthawed". had a half hour discussion with some morons at the bar one night that were going to go home and unthaw some food to eat.

Let me guess, it was "after dark" and they were going to "deep fat fry" it too? I must say, it's more difficult to "unthaw" something on short notice if the "hot water heater" is broken.

 

[John]

Too many to pick from. Butten instead of button drives me nuts, so does amblance wth is an amblance?

coupon - coopon

Ron Whites bit on the coopons cracks me up!

 

[jimmy buffet]

brung instead of brought

 

[Sidehiller]

Squoze instead of squeezed really bugs me.

 

[smokenjay]

How do you say 2008?

It's two thousand eight, not two thousand and eight.

Not really a mispronunciation(sp), but I hear it every day
