Professor keeps mispronouncing the word 'quadratic'

Yes because language matters what the fuck?

>professor keeps calling it "math"e"math"ics

Ethiopian teacher? I had one who pronounced Pythagorean as PIE-THUH-GOH-REE-AN

>Professor speaks in a thick Chinese accent and his powerpoints are incoherent nonsense
I've had problems with multiple difficult math classes due to this

"lynn"

just call it log for fucks sake all you write is log and the only thing we talk about is log base e

>"square rut"

>person

>math class
>powerpoint

>QUAD-RAD-DICK
Silly Americans and your flaps.

ln (x) = "the in of x"

That's actually correct English pronunciation though (both RP British and US).

>no lectures
>professor turned himself into a pickle.

Agreed.

>instead of pronouncing it "oiler" he says "you-ler"

>math class
>females

wtf I HATE when this happens

Because someone might hear an authority figure like him mispronounce something and assume it is the correct pronunciation. Then some other brainlet hears that brainlets version of the word and mispronounces it further. This continues down the chain of brainlets until one of these brainlets meets a proper English speaker and the two cannot understand eachother. If you dont follow the rules of language you may aswell live in a tree and fling your shit at people.

>Chinese professor pronounces NMR as EnnEmmAou

>precedes
>using * to indicate actions
I think you need to go back to fucking AOL or yahoo or whatever garbage shithole you crawled out from, kid.

wtf I've been hearing it pronounced as the latter my whole life
>tfw might go whole life mispronouncing something and won't even know it
I don't wanna feel this feel anymore lads

I know a guy who pronounces it PITH-a-GOR-ian,
and a TA who pronounces "theorem" as TEE-REEM

>biologist prof pronounces methyl "mee-thyle"

>va-RY-able

>calc professor slightly mispronounces derivative with a long i instead of a short one

It hurts every time

>Professor gets frustrated at entire class and questions us why we don't know the material.
>Demands to know our previous professor for the pre-requisite class.
>Ends class early because he realizes more then 3/4 of the class were his previous students.

I had a intro to circuits teacher who called resistors in series "in cereal"

>pronounces [math]\phi[/math] as "f-eye" and [math]\varphi[/math] as "f-ee"
>says "naught" for subscripts of [math]0[/math]
>omits the "e" in word with "ter" in the middle
>mostly speaks English with no accent but say some words with an Australian accent
>tfw this is me

My bio kept saying "Cooper-rick ions"
No idea why

>Prof is extremely disorganized
>Reads off slides provided by publisher
>Everyone hates the class and doesn't want to be there
>Spends the beginning of every lecture asking how he can encourage attendance
>tfw this is now the second time this has happened

Stat professor keeps pronouncing "cumulative" as kuh-mew-la-tiv, rather than kyoom-ye-la-tiv and it drives me crazy. Also had a quiet asian matrices prof who would always pronounce his "V"s as "W"s. Made it kind of difficult to follow his "motipo wectuhs".

I read ahead. Pair-uh-bola

Had a Fluid Mechanics teacher who had some really creative pronounciations of "Poiseuille" (as in the flow). It's a difficult word for swedes of course, but at least stick to one pronounciation.

Same course had a lecturer who stood with book by the board and just wrote down stuff word by word, sometimes just algebra for three boards. When someone pointed this out he got offended and said people could leave if they didn't like his "style of teaching".

I just stopped going to lectures and the course was pretty nice otherwise.

>being a self absorbed faggot who can't try understanding different styles of communication
maybe you're the bigger problem, seeing as you have to take the class :^)

Who is this guy really?

Found the professor? Lazy lecturers are the worst though, make your own damn slides with the stuff you want in them.

Math Professor has spelling errors, when writing real numbers: "reele Zahlen" ... Consistently throughout the semester

>filename

Hahaha that's amazing. I hate it when a professor rushes through everything and speaks as if everything is an afterthought. Then if you ask any questions, he treats you like you should have already learned all this.
I'm here to fucking learn new material, this isn't review for me goddammit.

Congratulations, you can parrot memes

>professor is reasonably attractive Chinese lady
>pronounces positive as "paw-tive"
muh dik

>Professor keeps making basic arithmetic mistakes

Don't you know what a T is ?

That's the British (read, correct) pronunciation.

teacher at my shitty community college went a step beyond nukular.
Nukulus.
New kyu luss.

NUKULUS

Bitch your pronunciation is an artifact of your class system. Historic English was closer to American pronunciation, but your faggoty ancestors imitated your inbred retard royals to suck up and didn't dare correct them when they decided talking like they had a 60 pound weight tied to their nutsack was cool.

mike ?

god

>>omits the "e" in word with "ter" in the middle
Histerical -> Histrical?

>burying head in podium is a different style of communication
:^)

t and d are neutralized intervocallically in american english before unstressed vowels

had a maths teacher pronounce ratio as rat-ee-yo

>professor says De Broglie "dee-broy-le"

>professor speaks unintelligible vietnamese
>uses collapsible car snow brush as a pointer

>turkish professor makes powerpoints the night before
>"tell me if there are any grammar or spelling issues."
>email professor about some spelling issues
>"thank you, but if you don't like my powerpoint presentations, don't look at them."

>when she says oil-ler

N-no.
This can't be happening.

My professor is too young to admit that he can be wrong

How do you propose to say it?

she wants you to Euler her up

are you meming? it's how you say it in german

>REDDIT
>RAD DICK

>Lashawna keeps pronouncing "Gaussian" as "Gawssian" (rhymes with gauze)
>initially irritated
>remind myself that not everybody is familiar with the particular pronunciations of how the names of famous mathematicians are pronounced, and that 'gaw'ssian is a perfectly reasonable guess at a first pass

>let it slide

My professor is too old to care that he might be wrong

Source: literally every british regional accent that isn't RP.

case in point

cupric

of copper with a valency of two; of copper(II).

large & in charge black queens don't care bout no old dead whiteys anywho

>prof who leads his own research group and just got some huge grant pronounces has his powerpoints filled with all kinds of basic typos
>also misspells a lot of shit on the blackboard
I've always wondered if he was dyslexic.

to Euler up you numpty

>in-TEE-gral

>professor writes in the blackboard and talks with his back turned to the class the whole time

yeah...

wasnt that funny, pretty baseline magicatheist man referance

maybe you're the dick-sucking "Teacher's Pet".

pronouncing it oiler is an inside joke

> have French PDE professor
> denotes open interval with square brackets
> student corrects him
> "ouuh, yiss, yiss I waus using ze French neutation, excuse me"

its methyl
its also yog-hurt no yo-gurt
its also HERBS with an H you inbred spastic, its not a silent h
also colour has a u

It's not the French notation though. [a,b] and (a,b) both mean the closed interval in the French notation. )a,b( or ]a,b[ is the open interval.

>Talking to CompSci nomie
>He says 'oil-er'

Pretty sure he means an unstressed /ər/ turns into a syllabic consonant (along with /m/, /n/, and /l/). Just how Americans speak, myself included.

>Professor says "These" instead of "This"
>I live in norway btw
>Half of my professors does that btw

Oh that explains it, I know ferrous but not cupric.

>does
jesus, the irony

>professor pronounces molecules as mo-leh-cue-les
>professor says -plat-in-e-um instead of platinum

I'd drop the class the first moment I learned my professor was black.
Absolutely no chance I take a class from one

Why do Americans call every member of teaching staff a "professor"? Professor is a very high rank attained only after years on the faculty of a university department.

no one cares about your 3rd world country's collegiate cultural norms.
