I believe everyone must have/had problems with spelling/pronouncing different word(s) before. What are the word(s) which you find hard to spell/pronounce?
When I was young like 8 or 9 y/o, it was hard for me to spell 'trousers'. Now, I struggle to spell 'dissapointed' or whatev. WBU?

off the top of my head i can't think, but obviously words not in my everyday vocabulary it will take me 2 or 3 tries to pronounce it.

Nothing, really. Spelling and pronunciation have always been one of my strong points.

I don't actually think that there's any words that I've come across so far which I can't say.
Though I'm not a confident person, so sometimes when I talk I just get my words muddled up and everything fails xD
ummmm I remember in primary I used to always spell regularly wrong and still can't really pronounce it.

Not to be arrogant or anything, but most words I can say with ease unless it turns out to be a foreign word like entrepreneur is french (though one that I would not know is not said in an English manner). Though I could probably pronounce some foreign words with the knowledge they're not English.
I think I'm pretty competent with my pronunciation and spelling but sometimes my syntax screws up.

There has been a thread on this before, and I think I said I struggled on about 2 words lmao? But now, I can't think of any words that I have difficulty.
Oh wait, I can't pronounce "deceleration" properly ;[. My spelling is usually fine though (except for when I spelt 'received' incorrect for 15 years ;[ and when I always have to double check the word "occurred").
SPECIFIC PACIFIC. oh phenomenon and millenium always end up being phenomenonononononon or milleniumumumumumumumum idk why.

Oh I struggle to spell embarrassing these days..
And when I was little I couldn't say flamingo 'cause I said "flingo"
English spelling and pronunciation are usually my stronger points, I can't really remember past the age of about 12 so I don't know if it's always been this way?
I actually can't say flamingo too fast :/
sometimes i spell attached as attatched, only one i can think of
when i was younger i couldn't spell definitely

the only word i really struggle to say is anemone :p i've always been quite good at spelling so a lot of the time i make up different ways to say words in my head so i cant spell them right! Although far too much of the time my brain works faster than my mouth so i end up stumbling over my words and having to stop, lolol :P
