Overcorrecting foreign words in your own language is arguably worse anyway.

Say "often times I don't even shower for a whole week" out loud right now, leaf. You won't pronounce the 't' unless you speak with some strange accent from the Canadian bush.

I've literally never heard someone say off-ten

In English, people will sometimes try to read or pronounce a direct loanword the way they think it should be pronounced in its original language. At best it just sounds like someone is trying too hard, at worst it's often wrong (saying "forte" as fort-ay when in French it's just fort, for instance).

Not sure about the mainland but Jersey obviously has a lot of cross over with France and French names, so people tend to say things that way. "Croissant" for example will be pronounced in the proper French way and not like most Anglos. It does sound very forced though if you haven't grown up using them as we have..
>>76889006
the funny thing is that we do that in Portuguese too, but we usually lusify(?) the word language (e.g. croissaint- croassã)
