    My wife is Jewish. One day when she was little she and her mother were walking around the neighborhood and saw a Christmas wreath hanging somewhere. Having previously read the word in a book where it was spelled a lot like the word “breath,” she asked her mother why they didn’t have a “wreth” in their home.

    In our household we now and forever pronounce it “wreth” on purpose because of how much I love that story.
