So, there is a lot of room for interpretation.
With that being said, it really pisses me off when people asks me if I am Ai-thalian...Yeah, I was born in Ai-thalee...

I understand.

Some people say
I-ran
I-raq

perhaps they're just being polite instead of saying what they really mean?

I remember one of idiot who kept asking Spaniard international student
"Are you Mexican? from Me-hee-ko?"

It just make some people look stupid that every Spanish speaker is from Me-hee-ko.

I've heard butchering of Hornady into Horna day, and Hodgdon to Hog don, and asphalt to ASH fault, Garand to guh-Rand instead of rhyming with errand

[Irving]

How do you pronounce Hodgdon?

[TFOGGER]

Hahj-dun

I am shocked no one mentioned the city of Quayhog.

[Irving]

Hahj-dun

I'll just stick with Accurate.
