Hey,
I was looking for a thread that dealt with general pronunciation problems, and was unable to find one, so I thought I'd start one up. If I'm undermining the integrity of an already-thriving "pronunciation thread" that I missed, forgive me.
So go ahead and put down any words the pronunciation of which you're not sure about, or go ahead and put down words you KNOW how to pronounce which other people often get wrong. I'll start with one I know, and one I'm curious about:
1. Wort (Pronounced WERT).
2. Tun (I heard some guy say TOON, but I've always said TUHN. Which is it?)
