I’m picking “Colonel” needs to be respelled to match how it’s pronounced.

Try to pick a word no one else has picked. What word are you respelling?

    Recognise. There is a G in it but everyone pronounces it Reckonise. They are actually 2 totally different words so this isn’t really what you meant but I hate that people don’t prounce the letter G.

      Reck-ug-nize is normal here. I’ve never heard it pronounced without a g so I guess that’s a dialect thing

      I pronounce the G, as does the majority of people who grew up on the west coast. Sounds like you live in the midwest (my wife grew up there and omits the G)
