TS its not that people are pronouncing it wrong on purpose different culture have different comprehension on spelling and there is also the accent.
OT: Everyone seems to think that when people get western pronunciations wrong, that of a word derived from their local language and accent they are stupid. If you ever heard how a westerner pronounces and spells our language(tagalog or cebuano) in their own comprehension without looking at a local dictionary for proper syntax. You'd be laughing your ass off.
