Babbylonian

Babbylonian: adjective. The properest way to write what is commonly spelled as "Babylonian." Babbylonian is, contrary to what one might have expected, not read the same way as "Babylonian," because the latter of the two should, in fact, be read as "Bay-bee-low-knee-an" rather than "Bah-bi-low-knee-an" and it is a wonder people understand the horrendous spelling of the word at all. In conclusion, as Lewis the rolling car would have told you, never spell Babbylonian incorrectly and never try to dangle a pokemon from a keychain.
