I've said the word MICROWAVE the same way it is spelled my entire life. I've never once had an issue with the pronunciation - nor have I ever been corrected for mispronouncing the word.
Well leave it to celebrity chef Nigella Lawson to pronounce microwave in a totally new way leaving me to question EVERYTHING lol
mee-krow-wah-vay
YUP. That's how she pronounced it... if you don't believe me I have the video below for proof and honestly, when I first watched I couldn't hold back the tears from LAUGHING so hard I cried.
It turns out she knows it's not pronounced like that, but it's still how she says it LOL go figure.
