I just wouldn't think to look up a word I assumed I was pronouncing correctly. I'm pretty good at this reading thing, and so I apply the standards, but words like epitome and ethereal are just here to fuck with us.

Tbf a call line wouldn't help you in that case either, which is the premise of this. You wouldn't call about words you assume you know

I can't imagine "ethereal" being pronounced any other way than the correct one. "Etha-real?"

Pretty much, yeah. Eth-er-eal.
