100 Words You Say Wrong (Common pronunciation mistakes in English)

  • Here are 100 words that people often say wrong in English. Do you make any of these common pronunciation mistakes?
    English pronunciation is a real challenge for people learning English, because the spelling is so irregular. Just think of all those silent letters...
    If you sometimes say these words incorrectly, don't worry - you're not alone! It is very common to mispronounce these words.
    Please note:
    When I say "British English/pronunciation", I'm referring to RP (received pronunciation). When I say "American English/pronunciation", I'm referring to General American. Obviously there are many other English accents and dialects, but it's impractical to look at all of them in a video like this.

    Great to see you again. It's been quite a while. I just want to let you know that I recently registered for your English vocabulary course on Udemy, and I truly enjoy the content. I think it's one of the best English courses on the internet. Love & Appreciation all the way from Johannesburg,South Africa.

    How nice to have you back, Max! 💟We really missed your lessons. I've added some new entries to my notebook of mispronounced words.

    Hi Max, glad to see you back again. I missed your lessons.
    One thing that is very contraintuitive in English pronunciation is the way how words with many syllabels are pronounced, like the examples you had in your video: mischievous, photography, thermometer. I would find it very helpful if you could prepare a lesson with such words. I'm sure, I pronounce most of them wrong.

    Dear Teacher Max,
    You have a gift from God to teach. It is a great jewel you received from our Father.
    If I have a teacher like you with for private lessons, I would not need an IPA alphabet.
    But as I am alone in my country, I am not accompanied by English native speakers, IPA is absolutely the must tool in studying English.

    It is an amazing video with a lot of learning. Frankly speaking, pronunciation of words has been such a tough challenge for people whose native language is not English because of the linguistic interference of other languages. I watched the video from A to Z and I too much learned from you. Keep on sharing your valuable experiences. From Mozambique.

    Excellent video! I'm familiar with all those IPA symbols so this was fun to watch.
    On a related topic, a local radio host in here San Diego had a long-standing show called "A Way With Words" where people could call in and talk about their local dialects and so forth, and eventually the host wrote a book with the title "There Is No Zoo in Zoology" which I instantly had to have, being constantly irritated by the dumb mistakes so many people made so often. In the above case, the author pointed out that "Zoology" is a combination of "Zoa," the Greek word for "Life" and "ology" meaning "the study of" as you probably know, but when even employees at our famous Zoo would make this mistake I had to do something about it!
    So I bought this book and several others, including "Is There a Cow in Moscow?" (no, because the Russian is Mosk-VA), "What in the Word?" and "The Accidents of Style."
    Sadly, the author, Charles Harrington Elster, passed away a while back, but these books are still available on line and I had no problems acquiring them if you're interested.

    Just discovered you, you're great! I've always been fascinated not only by UK vs. American pronunciations, but reginal accents in countries. Take "business" that you covered. In the Deep South of the US, it may even be called "bidness." I was born and grew up in the Mid-Atlantic of the US, which is pretty much known for having little accent compared to the rest of the US. Anyway, darn those English with their silent letters, can you all Crownsters just clean them up by removing them to help the non-native speakers :)
