    One of my best instances of this was when I pronounced “ricochet” as “rich-oh-chett” (rhymes with Boba Fett) as a kid. Never gonna live that one down.

      It wasn’t until I was about 20 when I realised I was saying militia wrong. I knew the correct pronunciation because it was always on the news. I just thought they were two different words.
