One of the weirdest childhood misconceptions I had was that I believed the word “Asparagus” was pronounced “Asp-a-ragus” because I thought it sounded cooler that way. I only found out a few years ago when I heard someone say it correctly at a restaurant. It was such a silly realization, but it made me laugh to think of how many other words I might be mispronouncing and not even know it! What about you? Any fun misconceptions?
