No thanks! I pronounce it exactly as it is spelled
…ain’t nothin to fuck with?
What’d you call me?
Wooster shire
Wor-chess-ter-shy-'r.
I like your style.
The “worce” part is pronounced like “worse”, so worse-ter-shy’r.
Isn’t it not more sha than shy’r?
Yep, but they were spelling it phonetically and I just wanted to point out that their syllables are wrong. I think once you realize “worce” is one syllable, the pronunciation makes a lot more sense.
My buddy has been watching too many redneck cooking videos and calls it “warsh-yer-sister” sauce.
I just saw a sign this morning that said “Irish Wristwatch - now you know you can’t pronounce it”. The sign was right.
We just call it wooster
Woo-stir-shi’
Now you can
war-stir-shar
There’s a British surname, Featherstonhaugh. Many of the people with it pronounce it “Fanshaw.”

Does webtoon pay comic artists now? Or is that watermark there for no reason

Tabasco

Wooster-shire
I hear “Were-Chest-Sure” around here.
Depends on how you pronounce shire. Americans tend to pronounce it like the hobbit place when it’s more like “shuh”.
Wait, Tolkien was English. He didn’t mean “Shire” to be pronounced like we Americans do it?
He did
As a standalone word it’s Shire as we say it, but put it at the end of a word and you pronounce it differently
Lancashire is lanka-sheer, for example
I’m from New Jersey and I pronounce it Wuh-stah-shur. I think that’s reasonably correct?
I do Woor-cest-er-sure.
Also northeast US but a lot less pin downable. I think of it like a slurred “war-chest” sound. But the “C” seems unused by most.
I dk where you Americans are getting the “sure” part from, it’s much more like “she-er” or if your more northern it’d be a bit more like “sher”.
I second this pronunciation.
Wooster Check Shire.
There, its wrong according to everyone.
it’s* wrong
