RIDICLEEUS!
Did any of you out there, when you were younger, have that funny way of saying things wrong?
I myself could not say the word 'ridiculous' it was always 'ridicleeus', same with 'ambleeance' (ambulance) and 'chimbly' (chimney). My Sister's were 'botatoes' (potatoes) and 'rullies' (lorries).
Same thing happened when writing, my Sister had terrible difficulty with her B's and D's, to this day we still talk about our pet 'Raddits'.
My Daughter was the best though, she couldn't (when younger) say the word 'seven' or the letter 'X' so she would just make a nasally sort of grunt, funniest thing I have ever heard, one..two..three..four..five..six..phgggt..eight..nine..ten. What silly words did you used to say?

I never had the habit but a lot of people would say "deks" instead of "desk" and I would crack up each time!
Remember the carol "away in a manger"?
The bit that says "the cattle are lowing"...
... I used to sing the kett;e is boiling.
What a teabag head I am!
I used to have trouble saying Massachusettes...it always came out Massachu-sh*ts. Now my boyfriend makes fun of how I say "calendar" and "downtown"...I don't even think I can do the phonetic spelling of how I say them! I think it's something like "keelinder" and "dehwntehwn". I never realized it until he pointed it out, and now i'm so conscious of it I hesitate before saying those words. Ugh!
