I like when St. Vincent played here and she pronounced it properly as Birmin-gum and assured us that she had researched it

I can’t write that phonetically. You know what I mean though. It’s bloody awful.

Why do they say herb with a silent ‘h’? Reasonably sure I’ve heard Americans say ‘hello’ or other such words beginning with ‘h’.

Also pretty sure I’ve heard Americans say ‘vague’ so why can’t they pronounce ‘craig’?

I love the complete inability to pronounce the t in the middle of words. My American colleague can’t say the word “tutor”, which is unfortunate as she’s a teacher. she says “Toodah” instead.

I sometimes make her say “tudor tutor”

“Toodah Toodah”

I find myself saying “warder” instead of “water” quite often. No idea where this came from but I mean who cares really? It’s all made up bullshit anyway
