My worst example was the word GIF pronounced like the peanut butter instead of properly as in Graphical. It’s worse because Amanda Montell was writing a linguistics book about the history of language and words.
Recent example was “eschew” which is pronounced Eh-shoo but the narrator said “Eskew” and it confused me so much I had to Google it to make sure I hadn’t been saying it wrong my whole life. What exmaples have you found?
Not quite the same, but I listened to a Stephen king book narrated by Anne Heche. It had a few New England localisms that she wasn’t familiar with. One that stuck out was a jingle that you just know if you’re from here… she made up her own version…
