# That's certainly the American pronunciation.
There are a few I wasn't aware of before I came here... lapel, puma, can't think of any others right now...
Oh and there are words like "acclimatise" which just aren't used here... they say "acclimate" instead.

# And the use of the word "momentarily" to mean "soon" instead of "for a very brief time"

# Some say lay pull, with the stress on the first syllable.

# And then there's basil, and vitamin

If you're here for long enough you're pretty much forced to adopt some of the pronunciations, otherwise shopping and ordering gets to be too much hassle.
