    Can’t…unsee…the incorrect spelling!

    I have heard it pronounced “Beyonce” by a non-native speaker. The word is a boss fight in and of itself.

      As a non-native, this is one of the words that make me cry.

      Let me try…buoyancy?

      Oh damn, I generally consider myself fairly decent at spelling but I’ve probably spelled buoyancy wrong every time I’ve written it.

      You know, those two times. I can’t say I’m often discussing buoyancy.
