I have no idea why I can't say that word. It just feels weird.

There are words I avoid because I can't say them correctly. Lol


It took me a long time and this was just recently to say "diffuser" correctly

Well I grew up in an area where proper speech is not important. So I had to teach myself not to mess up these words. Just saying them over and over again to myself helps.
