If you can easily pronounce Eurocentric names such as Vladimir, Rachmaninoff, Tchaikovsky, and Szymanowski... you can for damn sure pronounce Afrocentric names. #itaintthathard #pronounceitright https://www.instagram.com/p/CGDLJG1jmFIhDiPIN8ogWc4p5BzSD_7ZXaqahk0/?igshid=12wu7l8v7xlx8

Pronouncing "Nevada"

I'm watching American Ninja Warrior and they keep pronouncing "Nevada" incorrectly. It's Nev-ad-a, not Nev-ah-da.

This got me thinking about how much of a stickler I am about the pronunciation. It probably bothers me more than it should, but being a Nevada Native, you better pronounce my home state correctly. 

But the thing is, I'm fine if someone pronounces it wrong because they just don't know better. However, I've had people argue with me saying that I'm wrong. Never argue with a native.  Rant over.

I'm not a Leaf fan (as you can tell) but seriously, stop calling him "Reemer". It's Reimer...pronunciation: RY-MER!

I hate it when any hockey player's name is mispronounced! Big pet peeve of mine!

Ugh my brain hurts! Every time I watch the Supernatural Halloween episode, I cringe when they mispronounce Samhain, which is a lot, like damn would it have killed them to do a little research? Samhain is Irish, it is literally the Irish word for November and its pronounced S-OW-IN. Grrrr rant over!
