There's probably a word I've been pronouncing wrong my whole life that I don't know about
(discuss.tchncs.de)
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Worcestershire
I believe it's pronounced "wstr"
Close, that's Worcester. Worcestershire is "wstrshr"!
Woosta! :)
Wuss-ter
Wuss-ter-sheer
The whole word is silent
sauce?
That one isn't silent
And nearby Leominster
And Cirencester
and Towcester ("toaster")
Map Men have a few more examples
Sern Stir?
It's pronounced "siren sester".
“-cester” is usually pronounced “stir”, I’d assume then “Sir In Stir” if I got the first part wrong
It's English. The only rule is that actually in some cases the rules are different.
Lemon Stir
Wash your sister sauce
There's a Worcester in Massachusetts, local pronunciation rhymes with sister (which is in turn said like "sista")
