What about words that everybody pronounces wrong, such as “nougat”? No, it’s not “new-git”, it’s “new-gah”. I even heard “nugget” from somebody not long ago.
In French, sure. But unless you also talk about the national budzhay, you get that loan words can have different pronunciations.

No I will pronounce Latin with guterization so bad it'd make a Catholic priest have an aneurysm. Worst part is it actually sounds close to classical Latin or so I've been told.
I'm alexic. I can't even read words right the first time.
