Language geekiness

So, here's a fun video.



I break probably half of these rules frequently because I think it's funny. And most of these don't bother me at all. But it's good to know the rule you're going to break.

I wanted to add some other words we mispronounce:

victuals (vittles)
breeches (britches)
mischievous (mis-chi-vis)
grievous (gree-vis)

Also, by the way, pronouncing an "ei" combination as "eye" is Germanic and since we're a Germanic language, it's cool. :)

There. If you didn't know some of that before, don't you feel smarter now? :)
