Words I Can't Seem to Pronounce:

1a. 'Parabola'
1b. 'Hyperboli'
2. 'Nazi' (I can get this one out right the first time only if I'm not reading it/looking at the word.)
3. 'Eloquent' (ironic, right?)
4. Also, about 50% of the time I say 'Canadian' or 'Japanese', I say the country name first with the appropriate emphasis, then just add the ending, which sounds pretty classy.
