Clarification

It suddenly dawned on me after I did my rant over the mispronouncing of the word sauna, that I could actually have lead people to mispronounce it even worse! I said it is pronounced as "SOW-na" and it is. However, the "SOW" rhymes with "how," not "sew"! I hope that fixes it. By the way, does anyone know how to pronounce "gnocci?" I would hate to have anyone get pissed at me for not knowing how to pronounce it properly. :)

  1. Yes, it is the Italian dish--AND I spelled it wrong! The correct spelling is "gnocchi." And yes, the pronunciation is "nokee." Boy, can't pronounce it AND can't spell it--the Italians must be pissed at me! :)

  2. What really drives me nuts around here is the pronounciation of the word "Suite" as "Suit"

    I hear all the time this certain furnature store's radio ads...

    "This Saturday only! All bedroom SUITS 20% off!"

    They're saying SOOT instead of SWEET...
