I have a pickle permanently implanted in my bum, regarding the correct usage and spelling of English words. It’s been up there ever since my mom (a former teacher) began teaching me how to read, almost from the day she brought me home from the hospital. Mom insisted on proper English, and on reading aloud so that words come to life.

I can read in all directions, including upside-down and backwards, and I’m a professional audiobook narrator, Queen of the Cold-Read, and members of my family phone me for advice on spelling, instead of consulting a dictionary.

I also absorb accents like a sponge, and, since so many of the shows I watch and listen to are from the UK, I now use many English expressions and pronunciations. I even have tripthongs now!
