There is no 'K' at the end of 'something'.

[ItsOkayItsJustMyBreath]

I am posting here to vent as I have noticed this trend spreading the country and media. Even Alistair on Escape To The Country and presenters on R4 are pronouncing it this way.

Why?????

[SanityClause]

There's no "p" in the middle of it, either.

[ItsOkayItsJustMyBreath]

Thank you for joining me SanityClause.

Grrrr. This drives me nuts. I have a young (intelligent) colleague that says 'somethink'.

I always get him to spell it aloud, he can spell it but not say it.

[PseudoBadger]

No no no. It's sumfink.

[JRY44]

My boss says it. Drives me mad.

[WannaSplitAPineapple]

This drives me insane. I am amazed by how many people write/say this grrrrrrrr

[Eyesunderarock]

Sumfink.
Sends a shudder down the spine.

uvr

So many verbal manglings that turn up in spellings.

[GibberTheMonkey]

Sumpfink wrong with my pronunciation?
Discusting

[PseudoBadger]

Is there anything pacifically wrong with it though :o

[Back2Two]

I agree

(But my four year old says "somesink" and we find it hard to correct because it sounds lovely)

[Back2Two]

Ha ha to pacifically

I do hate that.

[Eyesunderarock]

lelo is quite a common colour in reception as well.
Sounds very sweet, and at 4 is acceptable to me.

[EleanorFarjeon]

My ds used to say 'lello' for yellow.

[TallulahBetty]

I work with a woman who says "mornink". Unsure if she's being serious or not

[EleanorFarjeon]

Mornink!

Is she Russian?

[MollyBerry]

I honestly can't pronounce specifically... (I do know I'm saying it wrong though)

[TallulahBetty]

Not Russian haha, Brummie perhaps?!

[Dejected]

arks instead of ask gives me hulk style anger.

[Sonnet]

Missing 't''s do it for me...

[PseudoBadger]

Oh yes! Arxsk :o

[ItsOkayItsJustMyBreath]

I feel safe here, it's good to be surrounded by like-minded minds

[somebloke123]

It really should be "summat"
