....that I cannot say for the life of me......They are in my head as clear as a bell....they come out of my mouth as utter rubbish.

Aluminium.....luckily I can mostly use tin foil...
Balearic......I holiday elsewhere....
Lillian.......My friend Lillian just thinks I have a stammer.....
Ensemble........And unfortunately I had to introduce, to an audience, a shed load of ensembles recently.........

Any words you struggle with?.....☺

It's my round.

Conglomeration..
Magnanimous..

However, I am incapable of calling the Slow-cooker anything other than the Deep-fat fryer (and we don't have a DFF); My Mum was the same with her pressure-cooker which was always called the 'Emersion Heater'.

And I have to concentrate really hard to say Combine-Harvester.
I had my son in fits of giggles when he was small......"Harvine-Combuster"....."Carvine-Hombuster". :o)

Odd isn't it, Jack......I can do those two easily but phoning and asking Bill if Lillian is in leaves me a jibbering wreck...x

I'm now saying that both ways, Quiz...and if I'm not careful it'll be added to my list!

Barsel

I recently received a 'Contactless' card from the bank and realised I couldn't pronounce it when I was telling a friend about it. I mean, is this an actual word? Every time I try to say it, it comes out as contact lens!

I'm sure it's a word, Barsel...and I bet it's clear in your head.....just loses it's way somewhere.....☺

I have a problem saying phenomenal. A good friend of mine is a highly skilled roofer in so much that he is skilled with lead mouldings and flashings. Most of his work is for National Trust Heritage property. As a young apprentice in the family business he was always sent to purchase more Paternoster because the other artisans knew he couldn't say it.

And I think that's why I was put in the Ensemble room, Retrocop...the other room was for soloists......I can say soloist but I have cruel friends...☺

The word was Patination oil but he couldn't say it.
