The reason for the so-called mispronunciation of words is the aphonetic

nature of some of the languages. The words are not written the way they

are spoken. The spellings are only a feeble attempt at representing the word

sounds in writing. The same word may be pronounced in different ways in

different countries. Just as no country can arrogate to itself monopolistic

pretensions over a language, so is the case with pronunciation. This is going

to be the stark reality in the present world, where all boundaries, excepting,

unfortunately, the physical ones, are getting erased.
