Here's my list:

 

1. Waffle

2. Noon

3. Choir. Who the hell decided it should be pronounced "kwire"? It should be "choy-er."

4. Peacock

5. Shenanigans

6. Artichoke

7. Clitoris

8. Phonetic (it's not even spelled phonetically).

9. Frappuccino

10. Yogurt

 

P.S. I am really bored.

Ok, this is not really what is asked, but...

 

I hate hate HATE when people pronounce Reese's Peanut Butter Cups "Reesees"

 

I feel like punching every single person who says that.

As in, you hate people who pronounce it correctly? Or you hate people who pronounce it like "Recess"?

"Recess" is the correct pronunciation.

No No.

 

Recess is when you go on the playground in kindergarten.

 

"Ree-See's" is the one pronounced incorrectly.

 

"Reese-is" is how you pronounce it.

 

The guy's name was Reese.

 

Reese's.

 

:thumbup

"Reese-is" is how you pronounce it.

 

That's the exact same thing as "Recess."

 

 

No it's not. When you say "Recess", I think "Ree-Sess", you know...as in this television series

It ain't! Not phonetically! Where is PWG when I need him? He's the English Major around here.

Ok let's put it this way.

 

Reese's Pieces. The "pieces' rhyme with "reese's".

 

The other way, it would be "reesees peesees".

Frappuccino?

I have a tendency to always say it in a really funny accent.

 

-Blasphemy

-Chocolaty, i cannot pronounce for sh*t.

 

That's all I can think of right now.

I randomly shout it out at my job, just because.

When I was very young, like E.T. time, I used to call them "Reesees Peecees".

 

:whistle

My short list

 

1. Pinochle

2. Orangutan (Most people pronounce it, Ah-rang-a tang, with a 'ng' sound at the end- don't know why?)

3. Ancillary

4. infarction

5. sycophant - my favorite of all time!

*Strikes dramatic pose*

 

Nah, Puma's right...

 

Reese's = Reese-is

 

Pronouncing it Ree-sess is exaggerating the "s" at the end :thumbup

 

You're not asking for the new hit George Bush Candy, Recess-ions, you're asking for the peanut buttery, chocolate goodness of Reese's :lol
