Aren't you irritated when people correct your pronunciation for certain words when you are actually right?? First of all they don't even try to be polite and say "Hmm I thought it should be pronounced as _?" but an outright "It's pronounced as _!" leaving you no room to lift your head up and as though they were that confident of themselves.
Yacht = Yat. Not Yoocht.
Congee = Con-jee. Not Con-Gee.
Minestrone = Mi-nuh-struh-nee. Not Mine-strone.
as of the last, stop pushing it in my face. i rest my case.
