in the days of yore when I learned to program in basic before learning English I pronounced goto with the second o rhyming with the first one, it embarassignly also took some time after learning English to figure out that goto was "go to" as my brain had made the programming association and wasn't treating it as a language construct at all...
Speaking about sudo, learned that before living in an English speaking country, so everybody pronounced rhyming with su-go (say) not su-do and I still pronounce it that way (which I guess it's wrong!)
ah, the joys of learning English as a written language first, even now after living in North America for nearly 20 years occasionally I find words I completely mispronounce due to having learned them from books
