I pronounce Creek as Crick but so does everyone in my area.
Batman Ninja more like Batman's Bizarre AdventureThe "Read" in Reading Railroad is pronounced in past tense, not present.

Still waiting for someone to break him free...I don't know how long this went on for, but my family pronounced "orangutan" wrong for a while (they pronounced it "oranguTANG").
The only thing I know about this is that it's because they thought there was actually a "g" at the end of the word, because one day, I was watching an episode of Wild Kratts, and the Kratt brothers were talking about orangutans at some point. Cue my brother realizing, "Hey, they don't pronounce 'orangutang' like we do!" A few seconds later, cue my OTHER brother looking up how to pronounce "orangutan" on Google, but adding the "g" at the end and learning the true spelling and pronunciation of the word the hard way.
The rest is basically history.

George W. Bush, and his inability to say "nuclear" properly. For the last time, Dubya, you moron! It's "NU-klee-ur" not "NEWK-yoo-ler"!
There was a skit on SNL, where Alec Baldwin played a doctor, but he pronounced every single medical term wrong. It was explained that the actor prepped for the role by reading the AMA journal, but never bothered to consult a pronunciation guide.

I pronounce affect and effect the same.
I also pronounce accept and except the same.
To me those words sound exactly the same when I hear them.
Batman Ninja more like Batman's Bizarre Adventure

I thought both pronunciations are acceptable it all depends on the region you live it.
Where I live it is always pronounced where the o sounds like ah.
Nintendo pronounces the o as oh; but their are still people at Nintendo that pronounce it the same way I pronounce it.
Batman Ninja more like Batman's Bizarre AdventureMinor, but when I was a kid I used to say the word "electricty" instead of "electricity". I think it's because the book where I first found the word had a typo.
Also, is "vineyard" really supposed to be pronounced "veen-yurd"? I mean, you've got "vine" and "yard", so why not just pronounce it as "vine-yard" instead of "veen-yurd"?

I pronounce salmon as Sal mon and I don't think I'll ever convert to saying sah-men
I don't know what I am doing so forgive me if I act like a chicken with no head on.
