Word(s) you have problems pronouncing/spelling?

Thought this would be a interesting thread to make, see what others have troubles with.
I know I can't be the only one who has problems with pronouncing/spelling certain things, or the only one who thinks it'd be interesting to learn what other people have problems with.

For me, on the pronouncing end of things, I cannot pronounce wolf. It always comes out as "woof".
As far as spelling, though, I struggle to spell definitely without use of a spellchecker. More often than not, I just type out "def".

Keep in mind it's nothing to be ashamed about if you have problems pronouncing/spelling something. You can overcome it, I believe in you!

I can't say the pokemon kyurem. Like I KNOW it is said how it is spelled but my stupid ape brain can't help but say it like Kai roo em, rather than Cure em. I like my pronounciation better anyways so it's not a big issue but >:(

As for words I cannot spell, I can never get the word occasion or occasionally right. I know that it is just the inverse of the two sleeve one collar rule for necessary, but I always forget it when I need it. Occasionally is 2 collar 1 sleeve and I just never ever remember.

I also talk in a somewhat canadian accent for a reason I've never been able to pinpoint, but sometimes people are confused or tease me when I say certain words v__v idk if that counts because to me I am absolutely saying them correctly, its just nobody has heard them said like that, so they think it's wrong

It took me a while to figure out is was wrong but by the time I did I was already set in my ways haha. I think it is said that way in one of the movies? Its name iirc is just the romanization of its japanese name, so.. kyu rem, essentially q-rem or cure-em

Nonetheless, Kyruem is the cooler way to say and spell it, so jokes on them!
