If you pronounce the hard "T" when you say "mature" and/or "often," please don't ever talk to me.

  2. Not if you're from England. Either way, it's not as bad as when people say HBS instead of Harvard Business School.

  4. A friend of mine went to a job interview, interviewer said, "Our customers oftenly..." Not only was the "T" pronounced, she invented a word! My friend decided poverty was better than working for the inventive linguist.
