Does anyone else have a problem with how she says Admiral. For how great the rest of the pronunciation is, this word just kills me.

Edit:From what has been discussed, the pronunciation dates back as far as the 11th century rooted in the arabic term amīr al-baḥr (Commander of the Sea). The Sicilians and Genoese contracted the term into amiral which was then passed to the rest of europe like a continental game of telephone.

Also: "As the word was used by people speaking Latin or Latin-based languages it gained the "d" and endured a series of different endings and spellings leading to the English spelling "admyrall" in the Fourteenth Century and to "admiral" by the Sixteenth Century."

There's a lot of noise, but check out the "The Navy is Ready" recording on this page. They pronounce "British admiral" exactly the same way as we'd pronounce it now.
Edit: Better link, with transcript.

Edit 2: Electric Boogaloo

Closer inspection of the dictionary page reveals the pronunciation breakdown for Admiral and Admire does indeed differ on how to pronounce "mi" in each word. So things appear to be less exciting than initially thought. Thanks to /u/Shadow_Claw for bringing up a more clear example.
