mispronunciations that grate on my nerves are "nucular" for "nuclear,"
"often" with the "t" pronounced (an affectation, IMO), and "sell" for
"sale."

 'new-clear'. ,snip>


Carol again:
I've never heard anyone say "new clear." I was referring to "new kew
ler," esentially, George Bush's pronunciation of "nuclear" (which I
pronounce "new klee er").
