Mispronounced words by British people are unacceptable though. The Brits need to be stopped!

And their wacky spellings.

Seriously though, I know there is no right or wrong, just cultures but "vit-a-min" (vit rhyming with bit) for vitamin , "al-loo-minium" for aluminum and "let-toos" for lettuce is like fingernails on a chalkboard. lol

The origin behind Aluminum and Aluminium is kinda interesting because the inventor that first refined the element used both pronunciations and iirc I believe I he had even a third pronunciation ("alumium")that never caught on.

That's nothing. I throw up a little in my mouth every time I see "cheque" misspelled, "check".

They invented the language, the least they could do is spell and pronounce it right.

They invented it, but then they started dropping r's while the Colonies kept them.
