To ask what words you can’t say?

[ohheyfreakingout]

... even when they’re written in front of you

I can never seem to say anaesthetise.

My friend can’t say kettle properly and my brother has trouble with vinegar!

Penguin.

specificity

Oh, and it is definitely not ‘nucular’—you are right to pronounce it nu-clee-ar @WinterBluez!

I can say it but not without my face bunching up like a rabbit.

An anomaly. Can say an. Can say anomaly. Can't run them altogether. Start stuttering like a lunatic.

That's so outing for anyone who knows me lol

almond and Aldi

Ah, Shag That's hilarious! Here he is in action:

I used to have a pathological hatred of the word ‘pants’.
Not that I wasn’t capable of saying it -I was-but couldn’t bring myself to, due to an incident when I was 10 involving my mother, my school and a brown paper bag. 🤨

Oh, and ‘werewolf’ used to come out as ‘woolworth’

Cunt. I never say it. Even if I'm reading the word, I'll only say C in my head.

If I concentrate I have amazing diction if I'm tired I stammer and have a lisp.

I can’t say thief. I just sounds wrong when I say I it.

"No I do not want any more wine".

No matter how I try I just can't say them!

Preliminary (can’t even write how I say it!)
Penalty (pelanty)

Iron

Tiger (comes out as Tay-ger)

Salt

Rise

Architecture

Quite a few for me, and i’m Sure there’s more.

For a long time I couldn't say
" Abdomen "
But I've practiced lots and it's easy now

I struggle with antibiotic, I have to really think or it will come out as anti-bee-otic.

Yeah statistics for me too. And words with loads of Rs and Ws.

Shag - did you see the Graham Norton interview regardimg this!

Finite. Because Infinity.

Allure and almond...just cannot pronounce those words!

Bureaucracy. Comes out really weird and the harder I try, the worse it sounds. "Brure...bru...bwur-wrock-rus...politics."

I knew someone years ago who could not say the word "collar". No matter how much she repeated it it came out as colour, she said she simply could not form the word. We worked in a menswear department so things got confused often.

I occasionally say "my-graine" and "vie-tamins" rather than the UK pronunciation. I annoy myself.

@HirplesWithHaggis me too, always sounds like Carol even in my head

Probability - all those b's. It's a bit of a problem teaching maths.
