It generally doesn't bother me, but if it's someone who already irritates me, it will really get on my nerves.

No, I assume they don't know any better. As long as I can understand what they mean, it's not something I am going to stress myself out about or become annoyed over. Life is too short for that kind of thing.

It can depend on what part of the country or world you grew up in. My Mom was from Boston and pronounced everything different from my Dad who was from Canada. Life is too short to be annoyed by such trivial things,Eh! or in Hawaii it would be Ya!LOL

No. Local dialects are an essential part of language evolution. Here in the UK we have lots more regional variation in language than you do in the US. And I love it.

- Having said that.... someone I work with says "interpretate" instead of "interpret" and "skewered" instead of "skewed" when talking about statistics. That's less to do with mispronouncing and more to do with her ignorance. So, yes, that annoys me...

- Actually, a lot of the regional dialects in the US evolved out of the dialects in the UK. The Boston accent originated from the same area as my husband's accent, Surrey. He drops r's too, and adds them onto words that end in a vowel. This is a great resource on the subject. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0198245/

Annoyed? Nah...I think it's humorous and sometimes sad.

My two favorites are verichle for vehicle and wrerk for work. Oh yes can't forget pogram for program. :)

Where I live, anything goes. Sometimes it's laziness, sometimes it's just the way they were raised.

Enunciation isn't always practiced 'round heah.
Either way, it doesn't make anyone seem less intelligent to me. :)

Yes, it annoys the hell out of me!!! I hate it when people say aks instead of ask. Also, Valentimes Day instead of Valentines Day. These are not regional differences in dialect. These are just dumb people that do not know how to pronounce words properly. I used to live in Britain, I now live in Canada. The way British people speak is a lot different from the way Canadians speak. If you'd still like to suggest that this is just a regional dialect issue then please tell me, in a town of 5000 people why would only 10 or so people pronouce the word incorrectly? It is simply because the person first thought the word was pronounced that way, then they either were never corrected, or were too ignorant to believe they were wrong.
Comments
- Helen, when you said Britons and Canadians speak differently than each other, you didn't clarify what you meant. If you were to specify who speaks better than whom, it might clear up the confusion.

  Thank you.

Yes, quite a few, but at the moment I'd like to know: what's with "axe" instead of "ask"?

It's not an impediment, it's somehow being taught to them! And by whom? Teachers, that's who! But no-one corrects them. Madness...

Then there's "pronunciation" itself... no 'o' in the middle, don't pronounce it.

It actually does irritate me. It's not a regional difference in dialect. If a word is "drown," then it's not pronounce "drowned." If the word is "oriented," then "orientated" is simply bad grammar. Dialect differences account for the various ways we pronounce a particular word, not the fact that some of us don't know the proper word to begin with.
Comments
- I disagree with what you say about dialect, it isn't just about the pronunciation of words - it's about regional differences in words as well. It's quite common in Northern Britain to say "yous" i.e. more than one "you". This isn't standard English, but it's a regional variation. It Scotland, for many many years, school children have been denied the use of ordinary words that teachers say aren't "proper english" ('baw' for 'ball', 'heid' for 'head', etc.) However, as I said in my comment to my own answer, I get annoyed when people don't know a word through ignorance. But, in a proper scientifically linguistical sense, if it's understood it's grammatical.
  
  Report
  
  by hijklmno on March 6th, 2007
- I would concede -- a bit -- that some variations on words can be considered products of regional dialects. However, I still think there's a distinction between that and simply pronouncing words incorrectly because one never properly learned the word. But where that line lays is for a linguist to decide. I have only my two cents. Thanks for the comment.

Yes! It can be very annoying.

Pro-nown-see-ay-shun is very in-poor-unt!

"Important" is my big pet peeve at the moment.

There is a big difference between regional dialect pronunciations and mispronunciation.
When a person grows up in Boston they tend to drop the “r” in lots of words but if a person drops the r in car but has no problem with the r in far or bar then they are either uneducated or just simply a dumbass.

Nope... Too many accents out there to worry about mispronunciations like that. Every state has people who speak differently - For example, people from Northern Indiana (East) have a different accent than those from Southern Indiana (East) which is different from Central, from North (West) and South (West). They are all conglomerates of the urban areas near them, and what they hear on TV, radio and music.

(BTW: You forgot WARSH! LOL

Why worry about it if you are not in broadcasting? ;-)

- Listen... I'm from Central Indiana, and my Mom was from Ohio. She says "WaRshing" and "WaRshington". Personally, I have to FIGHT to keep from saying it with the "R". Both my ex-wife and now-wife are from Southern Indiana - One from the East side of the state near Ohio, and the other from the West side, closer to where people speak as many in Kentucky do. These are ACCENTS, as far as I'm concerned. "Libary", to me, is VERY "Southern" as is "Drownd".
  .
  What I find VERY funny is when network news anchors pronounce "Washington" as "Warshington". And, yes. I've heard it a number of times. Even so, it's the way they were brought up - their accent - and every now and then, it slips in.

Small things like libary and drownd are a little annoying. But it drives me nuts when people use non existant words. My mother-in-law used a "realestater" when she sold her house. or completely the wrong word like putting the steaks in "marinara" before grilling them. The one that really bugs me is kind of a regional pet peeve. I live in Nevada, pronounced Ne-va-duh. Short "a" like apple. Not Nev-ah-duh. When I hear politician and news ancors say that, oh my god.

If it is someone that already annoys the crap out of me, then DEFINITELY. It makes me cringe and grit my teeth to keep quiet. I also wish I wasn't so much like that. I practice being a more compassionate person. This question brought out an area that isn't very compassionate.

I also can't stand it when a deaf person answers the phone. What the hell is up with that?! What, exactly, is going to say?? That is my grandfather. My father-in-law can't utter a word of english, yet insists on answering the phone at our house when he visits. Now, why in the hell would he do that? He knows all the calls are in english!!!

I have lived in Houston, Texas for about 9 years now and I STILL say things incorrectly at times..and I think it'll always be that way, LOL.

You did good on your test; I'm feeling good now (common mistake but 'good' should be 'well')

I don't get to irritated by 'who' and 'whom' though as that's a really common mistake (and I don't quite get it myself, can someone explain?).

Yes.
If it's a small kiddie it's ok, as they're still learning, sometimes it can be quite funny though in the end you correct them, but in an adult it can be annoying, especially if they keep doing it. It's not 'cute' in an adult and it appears as laziness to learn or remember how to pronounce certain words properly.
Comments
- In my opinion, what's called 'cuteness' in children only encourages certain people to continue using incorrect speech. Some people, regardless of their age, try to be cute on purpose, and if they know/think that something is considered cute, they may do it for that reason.
  .
  Some/a lot of adults who do things in an incorrect manner were those children who either failed to learn the correct way or who chose to do it the incorrect way.

i get it all the time as a realator.

no, i try not to get annoyed. its a waste of energy. i try to find the humor instead. language nuances are difficult to master. for instance, when i first started learning spanish, a hispanic man asked me how old i was. i responded yo tengo vente anos. i thought i said i am 20 years old. what i said was i have 20 a**holes. i should have años instead. so live and learn...and laugh...and empathize.

I am driven up the wall as they pronounce it TORE. or a DETORE(detour) or TORIST(tourist). My blood pressure is going up so I will stop for now. Personally I believe that within the next hundred years people will be speaking a new language altogether.

Drownd? Who on earth pronounces drown, drownd? But nah, not really.

Actually, it really annoys me when people say poem like poyum. Or said, like sade, instead of sed. So maybe I do.

I'm from Washington state. Not Warshington. Just like George Washington. Not George Warshington.

On the flip side, I have a word I simply cannot pronounce correctly, despite working on it. Museum. I can say all the individual sounds, but when I put it together it's "meh-zoom." I tried for years to fix it, but barring taking 15 seconds to sound it out, I just spit it out.

Really, I get more annoyed when people use the wrong words for their meaning. Bemused and "irregardless" (irregardless isn't a word, regardless is) irritate me more than mispronounciations.
