Words Americans can't say properly


Recommended Posts

Why can't they pronounce these words? To hear them mangle the pronunciation elicits a range of emotions, none positive.

 

- Herbs

- Lager

- Twat

- Graham/Graeme

- Aluminium 

- Craig

- Oregano

 

I'm sure there are loads more. Note that I mean the same words, not the equivalent, like 'sidewalk' etc.

Herbs (or is that just Californians that can't 'h'?) saying it again as this annoys me, especially if the culprit looks like a hipster.

Any Scottish Gaelic word, especially those with ch

The word Loch is a giant hurdle.

They have great difficulty in saying the name of our favourite sport and call it something that could be a dogs name. So football.
