You're pretty much 100% right there
though I'll disregard the digital/digickal thing, considering I'm personally incapable of pronouncing the word penguin right apparantly.

nope
that's how I hear it when other people say it. Apparantly I say peng-weng

Thank you
The last bit was to end on a somewhat flippant remark, though persistent mispronunciation of words would irritate me.

of course
generally my words are perfectly formed haha, but some things are just locked in my head a certain way
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:57, Reply)

I've known a couple of people who were generally well-spoken and such
and yet couldn't say theatre or beatrice or other similar things. Couldn't hear what they were doing wrong either.

I've noticed this as well
the only words I have trouble with that I can think of are penguin, fajita, and currently the word most

My sister, who is otherwise very erudite, believed that the word "awry" was pronounced "aw-ree" until she was 23
She is yet to live this down.

I have a habit of saying words for the first time to my mother
I've seen them written plenty and know what they mean, but always say it to her and she corrects me. it's embarrassing.

things like zealot and damask, so not your everyday words
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 10:04, Reply)

A friend does that with me
She'll say them for me to correct her.

She does that because she knows you get a filthy sexual thrill out of being right
She obviously wants you to plow her

Of course she does
I'm awesome.

What are you still doing here?

Because the girl in question is my ex
So that's not happening.

That is a very responsible and mature attitude
Have you learnt nothing from B3ta?!

Whilst she is still rather cruelly looking amazingly hot
It would not be worth the aftermath at all. Plus she has a boyfriend.

Girls are mean like that
There should be some sort of rule that dictates that post-break up she contracts a terminal case of The Munts
