Here's my modest collection of how things are pronounced here. That doesn't mean there aren't other cases. These are just the ones I can't get used to.
bologna		baloney (the sausage)
clothes		close
corpus delicti	core-puss deh-lec-tee
E. coli		ee-coal-eye
et cetera	excetra
february	febewary
harassment	harrasmnt (so nobody would hear "her ass" in it)
karaoke		carry-okie
library		lie-berry
product		produk
status quo	staytus cow
temperature	temp-a-chur
tracheotomy	tricky-otomy

back to same old

the first online autobiography, unfinished by design
What, me reckless? I'm full of recks!
Balkans, eh? Count them.
