I’ve always pronounced the word “Southern” to rhyme with howthurn. I know most people say it like “suthurn” instead. I didn’t realize that the way I pronounce it is considered weird until recently!

    PIH-cawn instead of PEE-can for pecan. CAR-mel instead of KARA-mel for caramel. AWN-t instead of ANT for aunt. VAH-se instead of VAY-se for vase.

    Which ones are right/wrong could probably start another Civil War
