Many people pronounce words wrong. Write a word (Or name, company, etc.) that you pounce wrong, and how you pronounce it, and how it should.

For the longest time I was pronouncing Hermione (from Harry Potter) wrong.

Me: her-mee-own
World: her-my-un-ee

Probably because I only read the books when I was a kid, and didn't watch the movies until last week.

A little inside joke between a few members here is to call it S S C Oasters.

I can't think of any words that I mispronounce currently, I'm sure there are a few though.
