How about Caseous Lymphadenitis?
Properly pronounced Case-e-us Lymph-ad-en-itis
I've heard it pronounced cautious lymphitis, or other rather interesting ways.

Oh, and I've never heard anyone else pronounce it Cap-rine. Always Capreen. Of course, realizing I'd been mispronouncing it made me go dictionary.com my herd name to see if I've been misprounouncing my own herd name... Thank goodness I've been saying THAT correctly! LOL!

I always said ca-preen. My college graduate son informed me it was ca-prine as in equine and bovine. I still said capreen. In Tennessee, they pronounced corid as coord. I was told dee-cox ie Decox was prenounced dey-cux, accent on second syllable. Chevere and chevon are both goat meat to me too.

What about pronouncing Alpine? 
And if you want a treat, ask a sheep person to spell OR pronounce Katahdin, which is named after the tallest mountain in Maine.
Very interesting thread. I had always heard "cah-PREEN" by the dairy goat people around here, or maybe "CAP-reen".

Great thread! I never knew it was cap-rine, always said ca-preen. The one that gets me all the time is Johne's disease! I just can't make myself say yo-nez when I read it!

1. first one Sah-nen
2. first one
3. first one
4. and 5 are both pronounced with the accent on the last syllable, although I have heard chevre said in 3 separate syllables too kind of like chevrolet only with "uh" not "aye".
6. It's said with --K long a then pr ine (long I) like thine --ca-prine (hard C -long a- long i) said in two syllables with accent on first syllable.

I always have said "Johns" - although if I had thought about the "e" on the end, I probably would have said "Jones", too! LOL! Now I need to start saying "you sneeze?"
