I didn't understand. Are we discussing here anything except mistakes?
Let's talk about something more interesting. Maybe about some embarassing cases? Г‘ГІГ»Г¤ГГ®

Well, the only "embarassing case" I can remember is:
Once upon a time... in my English class here, we talk about "can not" or "can't". There were students from Russia and Romania in the class and we found that most of students pronounce "can't" as [ГЄГ ГГІ]. And teacher was blushing constantly Г“Г«Г»ГЎГЄГ

So we make here a promise: 'Always pronounce "can not" Г“Г«Г»ГЎГЄГ

BTW, In Kill Bill 2 that dirty word is pronounced very clearly Г“Г«Г»ГЎГЄГ

Guessst

I did not quite get it, what's wrong with "can't"?

I once spelled Mao Zedong's name as Mao Tse Dung. My prof. had a good laugh but never told me to correct the spelling. I realized what "dung" ment when I saw a picture in SF Art Museum with the title of "Elephant's Dung."

Guessst

Oh, I've got another one. When I happen to talk fast my pronunciation suffers significantly and typically sounds like [o] tend to be more like [a]. Once I was talking to a group of people here in the U.S. about how we should focus on something.... But in stead of saying "focus" [ГґГ®ГіГЄГЅГ±] I said fucus [ГґГ ГЄГ Г±]. I believe I do not have to name the analogy and everyone is familiar with this notorious four-letter word. Since then some of the people who happened to hear this slip of the tongue laugh at me: "Name, go and fucus yourself" or "you should really fucus on the assignment."

I think that's it so far.

Guys, say вЂњBoth of themвЂќ fast Г“Г«Г»ГЎГЄГ

I always say вЂњBoth oth themвЂќ or вЂњBoth of vemвЂќ Г“Г«Г»ГЎГЄГ

I hope you understand what I mean Г‘Г¬ГҐГµ

And I always muddle upwords "advertisment" and "entertainment". I guess, people think thet I'm crazy when I say: "I love advertisment"

Dung - crap, manure, sh*t.

Once I asked my teacher to give me Sh*ts of paper instead of sheets ГГЁГ°Г®ГЄГ Гї ГіГ«Г»ГЎГЄГ

And then I was in a second form, I created a poem about a squirrel :
I'm very quick and very gay,
I don't like night and like a day Г“Г«Г»ГЎГЄГ

She didn't explain the meaning of the word gay to me, but the new poem soundod like this:

I'm very quick and very light,
I like a day and don't like night Г“Г«Г»ГЎГЄГ

Once a friend of mine was talking to his boss - in Russian.
both are very good in English and use it quite often.

They were discussing some issues and when the boss suggested a new way of doing some things and asked my friend what he thought about it, he (the latter, i.e. my friend) answered: " Г who ГҐГЈГ® knows".

The boss was dumb for a few minutes...
