I just thought of another one -- from the spiritual "Walk With Me,
Lord":
te-dious
Yes, you could maybe hyphenate it "ted-'ous", but Andrew's right that
the apostrophe actually makes the pronunciation *less* clear than
simply "te-dious".

com-forta-ble. Similarly with "Wednes-day" and so on. I see no
need to introduce apostrophes into words that don't have them,
since the desired pronunciation is immediately obvious from the
context.
