Never heard anyone say FUNEDRAL but I hear a lot of people say the following:
PACIFIC instead of specific
SKELLINGTON (skeleton)
REFUGE collector instead of REFUSE
In written form on Answerbank LOOSE is very often written instead of LOSE
And most school students write "Don't No" rather than "Don't Know" and "Would OF" instead of "would have"
A parent of a student wrote to me complaining that " this homwork woz 2 hard 4 my daurter"
