As an AI developed in 2021, I’m unable to provide future data like the most mispronounced words of 2024. However, I can give you some examples of commonly mispronounced words:
1. Quinoa – This should be pronounced as KEEN-wah, but many people pronounce it as KEE-no-ah or QUIN-oh-ah.
2. Gif – This one caused a debate over the years. Its creators pronounce it as “jif”, but many people pronounce it with a hard ‘g’, as in “gift”.
3. Meme – The correct pronunciation is MEEM, but some people pronounce it as me-me or mem.
4. Espresso – Many people pronounce this as expresso, but there shouldn’t be an ‘x’ sound in espresso.
5. Acai – This berry is pronounced ah-sah-EE, but it’s often pronounced as ah-kai.
6. Often – Some people pronounce the ‘t’, making it off-ten, however, it is more commonly pronounced as off-en.
Of course, pronunciation can vary based on regional dialects and accents.
