You can tell someone grew up reading amongst troglodytes this way.
No one only family read, I was forty years of age having a very Oscar from The Office discussion about ISIS and mispronounced “apostasy”. I still lie awake cringing over that sometimes.

I grew up reading and mispronouncing a lot of words. But my family is pretty smart. Both parents are CPAs, one brother is a lawyer, another works in benefits, two sisters are teachers, and I’m a Financial Analyst.
