I have a very close friend, however he has a problem pronouncing "can't'. when he says can't the a sounds like a u, you can imagine how that causes problems. So I am wondering what I should do to avoid embarrassment in front of my other friends.

Pass it off as Tourette's syndrome?

Frankly, if this isn't an elaborate ruse, that sounds hilarious.

I understand you thinking this is a joke but I'm serious. I don't want to hurt the guys feelings but I don't want to get embarrassed by him.

The joke is a fail. However, I have a solution for the problem of your friend, he has just to say " I can not" instead of "I can´t", and everytime he says "can´t", just punch him in the face, so that he learns his lesson.

It really isn't a joke, I swear to god I'm serious. And like I said I'm not going to hurt the guy. I am serious.

Then follow the rest of the advice, that is a good enough solution! Saying "can not" solves the problem perfectly. What else could you want?

If he's just saying cunt instead of can't, it'll just sound like a weird accent, most people won't even realise it sounds like cunt.

Tell him to say vagina instead. As in: I vagina do that.
It's more polite than cunt and you'll still know what he means.

this is the only solution i guess, is your friend from a foreign country? and does he have poor English? if so just tell him the way he pronounces can't it sounds like an abusive word and tell him the correct pronunciation if he is unable to correctly pronounce it then stick with can not.

Alright, thank you. And yes my friend is foreign. He is from Saudi Arabia.

Anyways thanks for the advice and I'll try it.

I'm crossing my fingers it works.

We already stated that, but it is indeed the best solution, yes.

Could be, yes, although I Kant say that the chances for that are pretty high...
