Annoying American words..

I've noticed they say 'go ahead' a lot. For example instead of 'Now click on the Start button', they will say 'Now go ahead and click on the Start button'.

They also say 'I could care less' instead of 'I couldn't care less' which doesn't really make sense. So you could care less, meaning you do care a little bit?

And yes, addicting! :(

Grrrr. That annoys me so much.
I've been watching quite a few build videos for multicopters this morning and they are full of "go ahead" and it drives me nuts.

"Now we're going to go ahead and connect the battery. As we can see we can now go ahead and test the gimbal. Then we can go ahead and perform the test flight".

It's a completely redundant set of words. They can be removed entirely from the sentence.
 
"playing sports" instead of "playing sport"


Question of sport not Question of sports....

Preecedent instead of precedent "E instead of eh"

there are some youtube vids of people saying a list of something with different accents.
 
not sure if it's been posted, but 'burgalarized' as a past tense of burglary....you were not a victim of burgalarisation!

also, it has been mentioned, but the general use of z in place of an s, or color without the u
 
For annoying word - Winningest....As in they were the winningest team in the NBA last year.

For mispronunciation - Akks instead of ask.
