Using modern voice recognition technology I believe this
would be a fairly easy game to create as a cellphone
app.
The players attempt to properly pronounce a series of
increasingly long words, starting with fairly easy words
such as "prognostication" and "acclimatization," and
getting
harder
with each round. The word is shown in its written
form and the person has a very short amount of time to
pronounce it perfectly. They then pass the phone to the
next person.
The words would not just increase in amount of letters
but
in difficulty to pronounce. "Characteristically" for
instance
has the same amount of letters as "cerebrohepatorenal"
but one is obviously a tongue twister while the other is
not
so they'd be distributed by their difficulty.
The person who can pronounce the most words correctly
wins, which will be a great consolation prize to feel good
about
while sitting home without a date on a Saturday night.

Are you drunk again Ian? You get feisty when you're
drunk. |

Hmm. Telling somebody to fall asleep isn't creepy
as
all. |

Does thinking correctly include using correct
punctuation? |
|

Ok, weird joke. Not sure if that worked. |

I'll tell you what's an illusion, things like PH making an F
sound, and silent letters. |

We need a revolution to get rid of all that stuff. |
