Both of these took me 35 years to learn. The wrong ways make more sense phonetically. :P But I've got it now.

End of lesson.

It's "weird", not "wierd".

"Loose" and "looser" are the opposite of tight and tighter, not the spelling for "lose" and "loser". <--- I hate this one most of all.

Data is pronounced "day-tah", not "dah-tah".

I say dah-tah

you say day-tah

I think it has to do with where you are located. Route-root, rowt etc

And yes, I did...I'm ashamed.

And Tower, the data things is more of a preference thing...most dictionaries (at least the ones at my office and online) list both pronunciations as correct ones
