Epitome and Penchant for me. Mocked mercilessly for those two.
Oh yeah, epitome for me too. It was the epi-tome.
So apparently for the latter you can just claim to be using the american pronunciation https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/penchant
All mispronunciations can be defended with linguistic descriptivism. It's usually a pissweak argument though!
