Such persons are not in that ring of my Venn Diagram, no.

@SomeMichGuy Clever.
@ProfessorPlum77 Thank you. I was thinking of Confuscius' circles of relationship.

Of the very many mispronunciations which I've noted, I don't remember having heard that complete fail of a rendering of the original---! "T" is not typically ever "mispronounced" as "k"...

Do you think it's laziness at simply not listening to the ends of words, or an attempt at being "funny"...?

@SomeMichGuy I am not sure why they do it.
@ProfessorPlum77 Nor am I.
🤷‍♂

C'est la vie.
