Enmity Or Enemity? by Nobody: 6:26pm On Jun 18, 2011 |
Why is it that most people (including educated ones) pronounce/spell enmity as enemity? There is no such word as enemity in d english dictionary. |

So because one is educated, one must pronounce all english words correctly? I would need to meet you one on one to hear how you yourself pronounce english words. Have you ever tried pronouncing teeth, tooth and breathe? |

What i am saying is dat, wrong pronunciation of d word enmity is rampant. I only want to help correct dat. Mind u, i am far from being perfect. |

Good, no one is actually perfect. By the way, a word in your write is pronounced pro--NUN--cia---tion. ProNOUNciation is not an English word. Enjoy! |
