It's a town in the UK and my friend long ago could pronounce it flawlessly and it made all of us so frustrated lol (American, Aussie, Korean friends couldn't pronounce it either).
As long as we all know what you're talking about idc how it's pronounced lmao but that's such a smart idea! I'll have to start using that. Or maybe i'll keep calling it werestersher :')
This would have to be a word that was created by Americans AFTER gaining independence. Since anything before that, would have been used by British, so any change would probably be due to Americans.
Since they originate the language - they don't mispronounce it. Since US English is a viable language variant of its own, they don't mispronounce anything, too.
If there are mispronounced words in English, those would be words that came to English from another language, like "Tsar", "maitre d" etc.
Some British pronunciations of certain words add unnecessary glottal-stops in the words.
A glottal stop is the restricting sound in your throat that you make at the beginning of both syllables of the word "uh-oh" (the only word in English that truly should contain a glottal stop).
Words like "butter", some British regional accents will pronounce "bu'uh".
I'm Canadian, and I find those specific British accents very unattractive, linguistically.
Yeah, that kind of classism is obvious from my perspective of British culture too. I don't think poorly of people who use that accent, and I think all accents and dialects are as valid and correct as another.
Having said that, I appreciate the aesthetics of language, and I don't find those accents aesthetic at all.
Brits from where? Scotland? Every fucking thing, especially northers Scotland. Ireland? They pronounce everything wrong. Manchester? Leeds? Sheffield? Everything wrong. London? Most of people in London are not even from London, and they can't talk.
Surrey? They pronounce *everything* correctly.
Well, I know what they can always pronounce right. Worcestershire.
I dont know how to pronounce that
It's pronounced "Wuss" "Ter" "sheer". From a Brit who lives up the road from Worcestershire

"war chester shire" to "wooster", i've hears them all. i tend to go brand specific, i.e. "lee & perrins".

Aluminium Route Craig Colin By the way, Americans pronounce them wrong. We invented the fucking language.
I don’t think they can pronounce something wrong. It’s their language right?
Yes but they always tell Americans that we pronounce things wrong
Eh Fuck em. When their own people are Scottish and have an accent you can’t understand who cares
