Comunlee Misprenownced Werds

Rhett & Link dedicate today's Mythical Morning's episode to a list of some of the most commonly mispronounced words.



Turns out I've been mispronouncing, and even misspelling "prerogative" as "perogative".

I blame it on the Bobby Brown song, but here's the Britney version because f*ck Bobby Brown.



I've also been sticking an extra "r" in whenever I say "sherbet" and the blame for this one lies squarely with Mike Myers.



There are many more mispronounced words out there,  one of which I was surprised not see mentioned in the video above, was "nuclear" which former President George W. Bush often (pronounced oft-en not off-ten) struggled with.
