Does anyone else read words one way but pronounce them another?

So, I’m American so when I say words like laboratory, I stress the first syllable as “LAB-rah-tory” when speaking, but when reading or writing it, my mind provides the more British pronunciation of “Lah-BOR-ah-tory”. Its not even all official pronunciations either- like, it’s a #PronouncingThingsIncorrectly vine in my head, but the words come out just fine when I open my mouth

Does anyone else do that?
