The pronunciation of words – and, by the way, pronunciation one of the words involved – was the substance of a disagreement between Summer and me yesterday. She was leaving the room and used the word “preferably” and I corrected her with “preferably”
She came back, took my laptop an started looking at dictionary pronunciations. After much grimacing on her part, she finally found her version at some site.
We then started researching advertisement, interesting*, and a few other words I can’t remember.
Interesting without the “ter” is just odd to me.
