Today's word

mala fide \mal-uh-FYE-dee\ - with or in bad faith

I recognized what this word must mean right away, though I'd never encountered it before.  I was surprised, however, by its correct pronunciation, and that of it's sibling bona fide \boh-nuh-FYE-dee\, which I don't believe I've ever heard pronounced properly.
