Mispronunciations

“What’s wrong, Izzy?”

She was looking a little hurt, or maybe confused.

“Well I’m not sure.  It was weird.  I was trying to Facetime someone and it said they desa-lined me.  What does that even mean?

“I have no idea.  I’ve never heard of that.”

“Here, look at the phone, Mom”

“Oh, it’s declined.  They just couldn’t talk right now, so they declined the call.  Not you, Sweetie.”

Now why don’t you go play the “pi-yan-yo” (piano)—another word you mispronounce.

I crack myself up.
