I always have a hard time saying entrepreneur.

Are there any words or phrases that get you tongue tied?

Vulnerable gets me tied-tongued every time!

Roar is difficult because of the two R's in it.

Mayonaise can't spell it, either. I say it: man-aze like I thought everyone else said it, too. Mom's always correcting and laughing at me for getting it wrong. She says it's not MAN aze, it's may-ah-naze.

Sovereignty. It was in the Watchtower so much at one point and I kept saying "sovereign-tree". Freudian slip, maybe?

I used to love those brothers reading the Watchgtower who kept saying "orgasm" for organism, though. It sure made the meeting a lot less boring.

We had one brother who always said, "menstrual" for ministerial, too. I liked him a lot...he kept me from falling asleep.

White Dove, just say mayo.

I don't have trouble spelling because I have an photographic eidetic memory.

I can never seem to pronounce "rural" in a way that doesn't sound retarded to me, but no one else ever complains.

I also get pink and yellow mixed up and sometimes say the wrong one--not really what you're asking, but thought I'd share.

I have to be sober and wide awake to be able to say author - otherwise it's arthur every time.
