Languages, accents, regionally, dialects, slang etc we speak differently but sometimes it's amusing.
Suppose you know a game and know how its name is allegedly pronounced and one day you hear someone say it differently or just plain wrong (to your ears or otherwise).
I grew up hearing Suupaa Mario Burazasu and Super Mario Bros (not brothers).
Hearing a relative call Mario, Mary-O, was neat to hear.
Another one.
I only knew this title in print or in Japanese but when I heard a video game journalist say the title of it in a video, it sounded like he said "squeaker dong." Suikoden
I couldn't recognize what it was until years later when he wrote about it in print.
And one of mine, I believe I called the shooter company, Toaplan, TopLan for far too long.
I have far too many of my own.
What have you said or heard that's amusing?
