I’m picking “Colonel” needs to be respelled to match how it’s pronounced.

Segue
I always trip over that one and start reading it as French.
I just learned last month I’ve been doing the same thing and mispronouncing it for over three decades. But it’s Italian!

tongue, there’s another fucker, I tells ya
Problem is that when you write it as pronounced, it becomes segway. Which just makes me think of those two-wheeled scooter thingies.

That’s how my coworkers were pronouncing it, til I pointed out… Who knew how long that was going for, lol
The now-defunct electric scooter company spelled it as it should be, Segway.
