The Block’s Liberty Paschke has sent fans into a frenzy after making a cringeworthy gaffe during the latest episode of her Try Before You Die podcast.

Liberty, 34, stumbled over the Norwegian word ‘Fjord’, which she hilariously mispronounced as ‘fa-jawed’. 

Her sister and podcast co-host Eliza, 37, was quick to make fun of the error after the show’s producer announced the correct way to pronounce the word.

‘I have not been to my local ‘fa-jord’ for quite some time,’ Eliza said between fits of laughter.

The embarrassing slip of the tongue came after Liberty was discussing the recent Chris Hemsworth documentary Limitless.

In one episode, the Hollywood superstar discussed the health benefits of exposing the body to very low temperatures after swimming through a Norwegian sea inlet, known as a fjord.

‘Anyway he swam across an icy Nordic…Fa-jord,’ Liberty said during the podcast.

After a producer gave her the correct pronunciation Liberty then asked: ‘What is a fjord out of interest?’

After a clip of the gaffe was posted onto the Eliza and Liberty’s Instagram fans appeared to be delighted by the former Blockhead’s handling of the unfamiliar word.

‘A fjord shall forever now be pronounced exactly like this,’ wrote one fan. 

‘Just like Nigella’s microwave is forever known as a Mick-row-wa-vae,’ they added. 

Meanwhile, other followers simply posted laughing emojis.

It comes after the fan favourites announced that they were dipping their toes into stand up comedy. 

Appearing on their Try Before You Die Podcast, where they try new experiences, the fan favourites revealed they had been requested to attempt stand-up comedy.

‘You can only come if you’re going to give us sympathy laughs,’ Liberty said after announcing the shock career move.

‘I’ve been losing sleep over this.. the idea of doing this is so horrific to me.’ 

‘I feel like my daily life is a stand up routine so I feel like I’m going to be just fine,’ Eliza added.
