If I were to go to Italy, I would try to learn as much Italian as possible and then speak Italian there.

How do I pronounce some of those words? (click the listen button)

Do you guys correct people who pronounce Mexico sounding out the X, stating that it should be pronounced Meh-He-Co?
No, I seriously doubt you do.
So you pronounce it chicken fagita instead of fahita? Pretty sure I didn't learn Spanish nor have I ever been to Mexico. That's just the proper way to say it. English, Spanish whatever. Do people frequently laugh when you intentionally mispronounce words because you pronounce everything the English way whenever possible?
