There's a road near my apartment block called Balestier (beh-less-steer) Road. Some people emphasize the 'les' , which I'm pretty sure the the correct way, but I always emphasize the 'ba' so it's quite annoying anyway.

There's a lady I know who calls a driving permit a perMIT. And ice cream as ice CREAM. It throws me off every time.

You'll be happy to know that the permit one is actually wrong.

I heard someone saying "CREator" instead of "creAtor" today. It drove me nuts.
