No matter what, I cannot pronounce it correctly. I pronounce it like as in.. "DEV.." DEV.. eh-lop. Most people pronounce it Deevelop. No matter how hard i train to say it "the correct" way, i can't seem to do it. arg.

I pronounce it "deh-VEL-up".

Correct. Dan, your friends are weird.

As a CVS certified photo lab technician, I can assert that saying 'dee-velop' is wrong.

Colonel.

I thought Kernal and Colonel were different things. I always pronounced Col. Col-loh-nel. And people laughed, until recently did I learn that it's pronounced "Kernel." lol. Sounds almost French. Pronouncing "Colonel" phonetically w/ a heavy french accent sounds like "kernel" lol.

could sound french due to the fact that it comes from the french word 'colonel' and was deemed to be such a great word that it was promptly stolen by us english for our language!

Like people who spell Doughnut as Donut.

Well, if you get it from Dunkin Donuts then it is a donut.
