I call this being bookish, pronounced "bockish"

My English learning process was me being a eight year old kid who wanted to play diablo. No clue about shit. Barely able to read in the first place and just going from one word which is similar to one in my native language to the next similar one. Like "ok, intelligence looks a lot like intelligenz. Dexterity makes my bow do more damage so it should be something like speed or whatever" so basically trial and error over the years. The pronunciation was accordingly. As an example, strength was "stren g t hö". Not sure how I'm supposed to write what i said back then xD Still to this day from reading and such and not practicing enough speaking English some are way off.

Jokes on you, I pronounce most of words in English wrong, because no one bothered to teach me proper pronunciation at school.

The colour Beige was my downfall 🙈

This is why I love spanish as my second language. You don't have to guess what the word sounds like. Spelling and pronunciation always match.

I always vaguely wondered where in-FRAIR'd light fit into the spectrum because I only heard people talking about infra-red and ultraviolet...

Read a quote somewhere a while back, to paraphrase:

Never make fun of someone for mispronouncing a word; it means that their reading vocabulary has outgrown their spoken vocabulary.

Fuck, it's me

Im bad at pronouncing words and i know a lot of them

I also dont and never did enjoy reading books

I'm pathetic at both pronunciation and spelling. I just know when I hear it lol.

Auto complete isn't helping either with the situation.
