Many years ago I saw a TIFU on reddit about a person who mispronounced “banal” while on a call with many people. I will always be grateful to that person’s fuck up for correcting my mental pronunciation of that word, lol.

I had only seen the word “tarot” in balatro until an NYT connections game that had it in the “words with silent letters” category

I used to think "pear" sounded the same as "pier". Same goes for "tear" and "tear".

I’m sort of nerdy about language and that little thing always fascinates me
