I have so many, but for some reason I like to pronounce shoes as shuez. Why? I don't know.

When I learn what words actually are I often try to pronounce it that way, and I dunno what I'm pronouncing wrong right now since there are words I know but never heard in real life.

But, in the TES series, I keep pronouncing "Sheogorath" as SHE-GORE-ATH. That is correct I think, but I forget the O... |D

I don't know what else though. But I've said many, many words wrong in my life and I'm not sure if I can remember any of them. Will edit once I find one, though.

Ooo, interesting topic! :) People make mistakes when pronouncing words, or mostly everyone. I do have 2 words:

1- Nutella - (Nuh-tell-ah), it should actually be (new-tella)
2- Marble - (Mar-ball)

I mispronounce the word edited all the time, and always add an extra "T" to it.

i have a west coast accent so it's natural for me to pronounce sentence "seh-nse" or "sen-nce". X)
