victuals -> ''vittles' i seemingly always knew for whatever reason, but i just assumed yosemite was pronounced yose-mite until i was like 18 and playing an american version of trivial pursuit with friends

tho it wasnt as awkward as being 12 and thinking banal rhymed with anal

Shout-out to the English-speaking crew who use the word smörgåsbord but mispronounce literally every vowel in it. Just call it a loving buffet and completely mispronounce that, too, as you do. It's over quicker.

(This is why we use phonemic spelling in civilized tongues. Baanan/banaan is unambiguous so you can't make the pun. And not making puns is skittrevligt.)

Ah don't worry telling people they should "be anal" is all cool and good.

It actually rhymes with "Cum on your dick". I think it's one of those weird German words that use letters weird, so just say it that way from now on and you'll be fine.

Fun fact, it's the same melody as the Fair Harvard song that that one cartoon writer in the Simpsons gets beaned in the head with a coffee mugwadded up letter in the middle of singing, in what I hope was a deliberate and extremely oblique reference to the WB piano gag

e: lol I wonder if anyone but a Harvard grad has ever heard more than the first few notes of the song

Make sure you pronounce all of the silent 'B's in words like dumb, doubt, subtle, and so on. No amount of reminding my wife will get her to stop saying "that's dumbuh!"
