My wife hates it because I have two words/phrases I dont see correctly. I pronounce the word Pillow with an e sound. So I pronounce it pEllow. Also I say "All the ways" instead of "All the way". Example "But it's all the ways across town". What do you say that is not quite correct?

I just can't pronounce Bourgeoisie, however hard I try.In fact I couldn't have written this word correctly if it hadn't been for the autocorrect .

My boyfriend irritates me all the time because he says "tooken" instead of "taken". Then I irritate him back by correcting him every time.

I don't think I pronounce anything incorrectly, but of course, others might I do if they have a different accent. I do have a tendency to exaggerate. For instance, I get redundant by adding too many adjectives, such as " the whole entire thing". Whole and entire mean the same thing, but I like them together. I want to make sure I paint my verbal picture very large.
