Comfortable: It's cum-fort-a-bul, not cumf-ter-bul. There's no such thing as cumfter
Wash: Notice the complete absence of the letter R. It's not warsh, and the president doesn't live in Warshington.

All right: Note the two words. All and right. It's not alright, nor is it aright or ah'ight. It's all right.
