[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL pronounces normal words strangely. Like magazine is "MAH-ga-seen" and teach is "teesh." Also words from other languages, she will often pronounce them in that accent but get it wrong EX: "I'd like a glass of cow-BEAR-nay with dinner," "this pee-TAH is wonderful with this dip" I think she thinks it makes her sound more sophisticated but it just makes her seem unhinged. [/quote] Wait wait you might be SIL. Does your MIL call au pairs "Aw pairs"? Please say yes![/quote]
