ha on "corps." I still think of colonel as "col-on-el" in my head. I can't help it. I learned most of the words in my vocabulary through reading and mispronounced them constantly. My mother would get so upset with me, but I told her the book wasn't reading the words to me! Now my son mispronounces words. I did learn that there is such a thing as karma and the mother's curse (I hope your child turns out just like you!), because I got a son just like me. He is constantly caught with a book in his hand instead of doing whatever he's supposed to be doing (dishes, homework, sleeping, bathing, etc). I guess I'm not a good role model when I read when brushing my teeth or cooking dinner. HA! Could be worse....
