My wife is Jewish. One day when she was very little, she and her mother were walking around the neighborhood and saw a Christmas wreath hanging somewhere. Having previously read the word in a book where it was spelled a lot like the word "breath," she asked her mother why they didn't have a "wreth" in their home.
In our household we now and forever pronounce it "wreth" on purpose because of how much I love that story.
This was me as a 7 year-old, reading The Hobbit and LotR. 33 years, and many rereads later, I still pronounce Gollum as golem and Smaug as smog.
"[...] I still pronounce [...] Smaug as smog."
Wait, what? I can't remember when it was pronounced in the movies and I also (mentally) pronounce it as 'Smog.' It has never come up in IRL conversation so I don't know how it's actually pronounced.
Does anyone have a clip/timestamp on a video to show how it's actually pronounced? It's been a long time since I've seen the movies.
It's /smawg/, it should sort of feel like the name doesn't fit me your mouth properly, English phonotactics doesn't allow for gliding from W to G without a vowel in between.
When I was younger and listening to The Hunger Games, I thought the boy's name was Peter and my narrator just had an accent.
I respect when people misuse meme formats that they've only had a verbal description of.
Yeaa... I totally learned skibidi rizz from a book...
