What word when pronounced wrong is right but when pronounced right is wrong?

What number belongs at the beginning of this sequence?
?, 3, 2, 3, 9, 2, 4, 8, 4, 3, 7, 6
3 ½.
If you break up the numbers into groups of 4, a,b,c,d, then 2 × |a – d| = |b – c|.
9 2 4 8 → 2 × |9 – 8| = |2 – 4|, or 2 × 1 = 2 4 3 7 6 → 2 × |4 – 6| = |3 – 7|, or 2 × 2 = 4, so n 3 2 3 → 2 × |3 ½ – 3| = |3 – 2|, or 2 × ½ = 1;
I’m not sure this is the correct solution, but it’s the best I’ve found so far. Email me if you know of a better one.
