ふんいき vs ふいーき 雰囲気 Japanese pronunciation
(summary: Japanese woman acts like "ふんいき" is the "proper" pronunciation, then finds that she actually says ふいーき when speaking naturally)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saidi3VDt2w


ふんいき	26723	32.5% 
ふいんき	55396	67.4% <-- this is an absurdly high occurrence as a *written* "mistake"
ふいーき	42	0.1%

sankoku: ふいんき「雰囲気」 「ふんいき」のあやまり
and, under the proper 雰囲気 entry: "「ふいんき」はあやまり"
  Comments:
Any chance of a [note], something like 
[note: "often pronounced ふいんき in spoken form"] under [1]?

Such a note might be an exception here, but this term is actually exceptional.  The term may be *the* example of a word-in-transformation in Japanese.

I was *taught* to say "hwinki", in Japan, in a Japanese classroom, by a late-20s/early-30s Japanese teacher.  The impression was that your speech would sound a bit stilted if you tried to say huniki. (perhaps like "whatcha doin?"/ "what are you doing")

Even for search-only forms, if the counts are <1000 and <0.1%, it's probably not worth adding. No harm in having it but I wouldn't have bothered with ふいん気.
