Just pronouncing most systematic names needs quite a good knowledge of chemistry. I guess that's working out the morphology, mainly, finding the stems and the prefixes and stuff, that stumps people when pronouncing things like "perfluorooctanoate" that it's hard to understand how people can get wrong when you're used to it.
