When I was younger, I pronounced "ma'am" as "ma-am". I didn't realize that was how you spelled out the word, until the thought crossed my mind in 5th grade.

I pronounced Hermione as "Herm-rine" for a while too.

I learned most of my vocabulary from reading, so I was constantly saying things wrong because I'd never heard anyone say them. Always a new one too, I usually learned after being corrected.

I say "tour" as "torr", but that's probably regional.

Tom is frequently entertained by my additions of L to words like 'both', 'south' and 'mouth', so they sound like 'bowlth', 'sowlth' and 'mowlth' respectively. My other friends tell me it's regional because they do it too.

I pronounce "Iron" as "Arn" which sounds fine to me but it apparently isn't. Even when corrected I have a lot of trouble saying it the right way.

For extra credit, my dad pronounces guarantee as "gar-un-tee."
