"Suggestion" always throws me for a loop. I end up saying it like "Shugushtin" or something equally screwed up. So I avoid actually saying
it all together. "Recommend" ftw!!!!
What are some words you just can't pronounce correctly?

"Fondant"! If I say it with a definitely French accent, it sounds pretentious. If I try to say it with an American accent, it just comes out all
wrong!
I can say it, but I hate saying "rural." |

When I was a kid, I could not pronounce Rs to save my life. I still get mildly uncomfortable with words that have several Rs or an R in the middle-like, juror.
I don't think people can really tell, but still

Massachusetts and taupe. My family makes fun of me ALL the time for it. Every time they want to insult me they just ask me to say Massachusetts and I
can't.

I have trouble with photosynthesis, which really sucks when I have to teach it! I have to slow down and over-pronounce it to avoid stuttering.

Aw.
 Massachusetts is a tricky one for me too. I can say it if I go slowly, but I'll butcher it otherwise.

Appreciate. I think it sounds all mumbled when I say it, like I drop the "ap" or something. It's odd, I know.

I cannot for the life of me say the phrase "edited it" without looking at it. It's like when I was learning to spell "banana" and
didn't know when to stop. nananana I get confused on how many "diddit"s to say.

Words with -tton, like cotton and button. I don't know why, people just say that I say it wrong.

Immunizations, I can't say without really thinking about it.
There is another one that I can't say for the life of me and I can't think of it at the moment. I was trying to say it the other day after about 5 tries I gave up. LOL Girls at work were having fun making teasing me over it. |
