got a friend who cannot get carbonara (sauce) right.....she calls it carabonna.
My mum always "picks me up" on the word mischievous....cos I always pronounce it mis-chiev-ious when actually there is no "i" after the v. Think this is a very common one though. |

My mam always tells the story of how a neighbour complimented her on my speech skills when i was a toddler as we'd been to the zoo n i told said neighbour we'd seen a rhinoceros....my no nonsense granma said its nowt to boast about, anyone can say rhineroserous so rhinos have been rhineroserous in our family for over 40 years
my cousin could never say carolyn n always called me cagolyn which got shortened to cag and then fecking lengthened to caggie!! Once i got my nickname i was so happy no one remembered cag..... |
