I’ve always pronounced the word “Southern” to rhyme with howthurn. I know most people say it like “suthurn” instead. I didn’t realize that the way I pronounce it is considered weird until recently!

    So I just realized a few years ago that “join” is one syllable like “coin.” Should make sense, right?

    I’d always pronounced it “joy-in.” I still have to consciously change my pronunciation to say it right.

    I also learned a couple months ago that I trill the ‘r’ in “three.” I don’t really know how to make the “thr” sound without a slight trill. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
