Mood:    | Re: OK [ QUOTE ] Cammer said:What about the spoken words that people, even well educated people, can't seem to pronounce correctly? The two most common that come to my mind are jewelry and nuclear. For some reason the President of the US, among many, many others, seem only able to pronounce them as "joolery" and "noocular." To me it indicates a lack of professionalism. [/ QUOTE ] Doesn't strike me as unprofessional at all. If you take six people from all corners of the country from New England, The South/Florida, Northwest, Southern California, and the Midwestern Breadbasket states, you'll get six completely different pronunciations. It is chiefly a matter of regional accents and pronunciation styles. Who's to say a certain region's is "right" or "wrong"? Sorry to say, you're being more than a little regionally biased.

Mood:   | Re: OK saying joolery I don't have much of a problem with because it sounds at least a little similar. Saying noocular gets to me a bit. It's not even close! I guess the Pres. keeps on keepin' on because if he changes the way he pronounces it, then he'd be admitting he either made a mistake or didn't know the proper pronunciation, therefore, well that's not too bright. I can understand that though. |
