Perhaps some words deserve to be replaced by their mispronounced versions, such as:

card shark (incorrect)

cardsharp (correct)

when popular usage of the correct pronunciation is a relatively rare occurrence. For example, Google reports about 20,200 hits for "card shark" compared to about 3,750 for "cardsharp."
wasn't there even a cheesy 1980s game show called Card Sharks? I don't know why I posed this as a question. It was. Watched it on sick days and during the summers. Hi Coltrane.
