$wife and I playing along at countdown (conundrum round):
Me: Oh! I've got it!
Her: (struggles awhile then gives up)'
Me: Badmnnun!
Her: THAT'S NOT A WORD!
Me: (genuinely confused) You don't know that game? With the rackets and the shuttlecocks? Badngrghn?
Her: Are those even syllables? Spell it.
Me: B-a-d-m-i-n-t-o-n
Her: Oooooh! Christ, you mumble...
Me: Spends next ten minutes trying to pronounce "Badminton" until the word loses all meaning.
