The one word people mispronounce while explaining what it means.
means The accepted way of saying a word out loud, down to its stresses and sounds.
from From Latin pronuntiare, 'to proclaim or announce' — pro- ('forth') plus nuntiare ('to announce,' kin to nuntius, 'messenger,' the root behind 'announce' and 'denounce'). It passed through French into English by the 1400s, originally covering any kind of public declaring before narrowing to mean specifically how a word sounds coming out of your mouth — which is exactly the part people still trip over.
