Annoying Pronunciations.

Hibernianeggs · 2012-01-15 18:54:13

Does anyone you know pronounce words differently of strangley so that it gets on your nerves?For example I HATE when people say hospital like "hostible" and I also think that "exscape" is really annoying:mad:.Have you ever slagged or called someone up on it?

moo en, instead of moon.

Choo en, instead of tune,

righ instead of right

eeuwt, instead of out,

the ssss noise that some dubs make after words ending in t, such as great ssss, once you notice it it will drive you crazy.

Replacing t with d, dats ok den etc.
