Speaking of python, how do you pronounce "import"? I pronounce it as IM-port. According to the rule that makes it a noun, but shouldn't it be a verb? I wonder if I'm pronouncing it correctly.

- dhosek 5y agoWhen you use it as a verb it should have the stress on the second syllable, /imˈpôrt/ as a verb, /ˈimˌpôrt/ as a noun. It's probably one of the more common mispronunciations. The number one mispronunciation, though, has to be “often” (look it up). With forte, meaning strength, as number two.
