Meanwhile someone over in America is compiling a list of annoying british words along with the terrible accents thread

 

[G-MAN2004]

That Kevin Bacon advert where he talks about data. He sounds so uncomfortable as you just know they've told him to pronounce it our way instead of 'datta'.

"urbs" its HHHHHerb

Where's the god damn E?

 

[Fenris]

Everything you linked besides their pronunciation of Aluminium depends heavily on accent.

 

[Pawnless Endgame]

Iraq. It's 'eee-rack' not 'eye-rack'.

Yeah that one's pretty annoying. I played a shareware Breakout-type game many years back, and when you got the multi-ball bonus, it said mult-eye ball

Realtor instead of estate agent... never got my head around that one.

The one that annoyed me the most is from the film Ronin.

Robert De Niro asks Sean Bean......

"What's the colour of the boathouse at Hereford?"

but he pronounces Hereford "Here ford"

grrrrr.
