Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
Nothing really. The only times I really mispronounce things are when I use words that I know in writing, but have never actually heard before.
"Here's the complication
I just can't say I love you
Not that I can't feel it
It's just that I waited for
the perfect time to say it
Now it's out of proportion
I waited too long"
I know you weren't referencing that, but it made me think of that.
Anyway, I have a problem with the word "probably." It always comes out "Probly."

Very recently I had to say quinoa. I had thought it was Quinn no a.
So how is it actually said? keen-owe-ah?
/ˈkiːnwɑː/
I was once rather inebriated and had trouble saying the word inebriated.

I can't think of any off the top of my head. Once I learn the correct pronunciation of a word, I can usually correct myself.
But on a related issue, growing up there were a number of words I simply pronounced wrong for many years, because a large amount of my vocabulary was developed through reading. For example, "epitome" was pronounced phonetically (ep-ih-tome) for years until I learned the correct pronunciation. I'm pretty sure I forced the "b" into "subtle" for a while too.
