pronunciation chickenshit

worried whether to use what you know to be the proper pronunciation of a name and seem pretentious to some, or to use the name’s more common mispronunciation and seem a dunce to others

I’m always a pronunciation chickenshit when it comes to “Vincent van Gogh”.

professor pronunciation

The unusual pronunciation of common words by university professors.

My history professor says "Po-land" instead of "Poland." Is it really the land of the Po?

I thought "God" rhymed with "odd" but my professor says "Gah-haw-d" as if it had three syllables.

Dude, that's professor pronunciation; get used to it.

How a word sounds when spoken correctly. Not a vital part of any UrbanDictionary definition.

'Tough' and 'though' are spelled similarly, but have very different pronunciations.
