    Yup, i do the same, avoids bullshit.

    I kinda overdo it though. Woman’s about to cross a road with her headphones on, running the pedestrian red light with intense traffic, not bothering to look either way? I’m not gonna mansplain, that’s offensive, she knows what she’s doing.

    Your argument is a descriptivist one, but how do you determine which is the ‘right’ pronunciation if both ways of pronouncing a thing are commonly used?

    If the vast majority is wrong it doesn’t make them right.
    Hyundai is correctly pronounced how the hell ever koreans pronounce it.
    One not being korean, it’s acceptable to approximate.
