What Mispronounced Words Drive You Absolutely Insane?
For our topic of the day today on the Morning Show, we wanted to know what mispronounced words drive you right up the wall?
JStew: Oddly enough, I thought this was going to be much harder than it turned out to be. But then I happened to remember one word that gets me every time when someone flubs it. It happened to be the name of one of my favorite lunch spots, and one of my favorite spices...Chipotle. I would say at least half of the people I hear, pronounce it cha-pole-tay . It is definitely NOT pronounced that way. Most people invert the L and the T. It is correctly pronounced chi-pote-lay . Another one that sends me into the stratosphere of frustration is EX-presso . I dated a girl that used to say it. I m pretty sure we may have broken up over the amount of times I corrected her for saying it wrong. It s with an additional S not an X . ESPRESSO!!!!!!!
