I've been deaf all my life. When I was little, I used to feel sorry for people who couldn't speak sign language and had to communicate by moving their mouths into funny shapes. I thought there was something wrong with their hands.
I used to believe that the saying "2 wrongs don't make a right" was "2 wongs don't make a white"
I used to believe that L-M-N-O-P was 1 letter, pronounced elemenopee
I used to think that N was a special letter because it was in the alphabet song twice(L-M-N-O-P and W-X-Y-N-Z)
n
I used to believe that LMNOP in the alphabet song was "elemental p" and i didn't understand why it was "elemental" p and what elemental means

l used to believe that lowercase I is an l.

I used to think that fetish meant phobia. I was afraid of bare feet and when i told people i had a feet fetish, they would take their shoes off and stick their feet in my face which freaked me out. I just thought that they did that to scare me, because i didn't know what a fetish was. That was in 3rd grade, when i didn't know that much about fetishes

I used to believe that L-M-N-O-P was one letter, pronounced ellamenopee, because they say it fast in the alphabet song.
I used to think the LMNOP part of the alphabet was, elemenopee.

I used to believe that a germaphobe was a "germanphobe", someone who is scared of Germans. I overheard a conversation between my mom and someone on the phone and she said "germaphobe". I would wonder why someone would be scared of Germans, maybe because of their accent or something. I dunno
I used to think that when someone(usually my dad), was saying "Pardon me", they were saying "Part me" because they said it fast and I didn't find out until I was 12.
I used to think that when someone said "Good grief", they were saying "Good greep"

I used to think that when people were saying good grief they were saying good greeb. I still don't know what greeb means, if it's a word.

I have a friend whose son knows that eight is a number and ate is the past tense of eat. Because of this, he thinks that as well as being able to say that you ate something, you can also say that you sevened it, or sixed it, and so on. (Maybe he thinks that refers to the number of times you chew each mouthful before swallowing it, in which case if you say you oned it then presumably you gulped it down in one go without chewing it first!)
I used to believe that "perhaps" was only used when you were tired of saying "maybe", instead of just being an alternative word, and I asked people who said it if they were tired of saying "maybe". I had a children's dictionary that explained that they meant the same thing by saying "'Perhaps' is a word you use when you are tired of saying 'maybe'".

I used to believe that when someone sneezed you would respond with "Blesh You" and that blesh was some word used only when someone sneezes.

Until about my freshman year in high school, I always heard about mostly celeberties being "incognito" but i always thought they were in Cognito like as a place. I thought Cognito was some tropical island somewhere.
I used to think tardy meant that you're being a r e t a r d then one day the teacher said that I was tardy and the teacher explained it to me

When I was little my grandfather told me that my cousin was in a private school. I was so confused. If it was private, how did he know?
Yes, I was the kid that took everything literally
