Hands down my most difficult word is "regularly" If the producer lets me I pronounce it "usually", "normally" or "on a regular basis" otherwise I just slug through it as best I can. In the old days on the air I just dropped the first "L" and it came out "reguarly"

"Regularly" has tripped me up more than once. I find that alliteration exercises ("Larry left locks lying low", etc.) and warm-ups help quite a bit.

That sucker is an elide on the "M".
You don't need to fullly pronounce both "M"s. Just close the first one and let that sound lead into "made".
Hohmade.

| I used to work with someone (on air) who would distinctly separate each word of D'angelo's sandwich shops. Some words are just meant to run together. |
