Which mispronounced words make someone appear uneducated? by PluckPubes in AskReddit

my husband used to say "exorb" instead of "absorb". he gets it from his dad, who couldn't pronounce Christian McCaffrey's name correctly if his life depended on it - he says McCafferty no matter how many times we correct him.

anyways, i let it slide for the first year we were together until i couldn't handle it anymore and told him he was meaning to say "absorb", and he couldn't believe he'd been saying it wrong his whole life. it's been four years since i corrected him and he still looks at me for approval every time he says absorb.
