To say it's NOT pronounced like this?

[DaanSaaf]

Cutlery.

Cut-le-ree
Not cuttle-ree

Sets my teeth on edge. What pronunciations annoy you?

Where has “conversate” come from? Makes me want to stick a fork in my eye.

brisklady thank you!
I typed 'knawing' three times and knew it still wasn't quite right (was too darn tired to work out why), but was too keen to post my bitching about pronunciation to let my spelling hold me back

Pronouncing th as f. As in vo instead of though and free instead of three.
absolute height of laziness and ignorance. IMO

I do that.

I pronounce "th" as "d" or "f" when I talk casually, but not when using my proper voice. "Dis" for this.

Jai as in Kai? I live in Scotland and I have never heard this

Standard pronunciation in East Central Scotland

No it isn't. As detailed in this thread.

Specialty - spesh-al-ty instead of speciality - spesh-ee-alley-tea - boils my piss. Working for the NHS I hear it a lot 😡😡
Oriented ... FFS we're not American, it's orientated/ disorientated
Scapegoat being used as a verb - as in "she was scapegoated".
And yes, Pacific instead of specific 😰 god I'm a picky mare!!!

Oh and borrowed instead of lent. She borrowed it me. No, she lent it to you.

Umm, not in the USA. Hope you don't get so sick you wind up in THE hospital. Fgs, LoL 🤣

See now, 'She lent it to you' makes me nose and me top lip try to withdraw into me eye sockets.
It just isn't right.

What's wrong with "she lent it to you"
Should it be "she borrowed that from you"?

People who say ‘me nose’ and ‘me eyes’ instead of ‘my nose’ and ‘my eyes’

Someone mentioned Primark. The first stores in the chain opened in Ireland and were called Pennys, it later opened a store in Belfast which was definitely called 'Preemark' not 'Prymark'! I think it was when they expanded to England that the pronunciation changed. Sometimes we call it 'prymark' but only as a joke to make it sound posh!

"Prymark" in my part of Scotland would get you burnt at the stake.

Now here come all the posts about how "PRI" in English does not sound "PREE"...

@BanginChoons that really makes my teeth itch.

What's wrong with "she lent it to you"

Nothing. Maybe PP was making a joke that we missed?

See now, 'She lent it to you' makes me nose and me top lip try to withdraw into me eye sockets.

I cannot see what is wrong with "she lent it to you" either?

I do hate "I lent it from her", or "I borrowed it to her"

No idea what I was on about, me I was pissed.

Dh and fil say sireen instead of siren. It really fucking grips my shit

useditup I had a few last night too haha
