It's all about words! For the following, please list as many words as you wish...1. Words most commonly mispronounced.2. Words used improperly.3. Words most often misspelled.4. Words or phrases that you feel are over-used.
1. Nu-cle-ar (Thanks Mamie and dubya!), often (I'm a "no t" pronouncer)
2. The latest is "transition". IT IS NOT A VERB! STOP USING IT THAT WAY!! "At" as in "where're we at?" WRONG WRONG WRONG!! "seen": I seen it - YECH!!
3. "Collectible" as in 'things you wish to acquire and accumulate" spelled "Collectable", which is 'the ability to do so.' In my line of work, I see too many words to mention that are misspelled!
4. "Awesome", "Dude",
