if it's spelled worchestershire, I'm gonna pronounce it worchestershire.
I've been saying Worcestershire this whole time.
It's not a common word for us and the phonetics don't match the pronunciation whatsoever.
It's not hard at all. But due to the fact that stealing other people's words and aggressively mispronouncing them seems to be the official British pastime, I don't give a fuck how you pronounce it. I'll pronounce it how it's spelled, or any other way I damn well please.
There are more of us than there are of you. It's our language now, you're an anachronism.
War. Chester. Fight me.
Don't forget the shire.
Wash your sister.
That bitch can wash her self
Worcestershire? I don't even know her
Something like Woostuhshuh, apparently, for some reason. 🤨
Americans like over pronouncing shire for all English counties until they remember New Hampshire exists.
It's not the shire that worries me, it's where the fuck the rces in Worcester is going...
It's worce-ster-shire. And the "worce" is pronounced "worse".
OK, but what if I pronounce it better?
Wooster-shire
Depends on how you pronounce shire. Americans tend to pronounce it like the hobbit place when it's more like "shuh".
I'm from New Jersey and I pronounce it Wuh-stah-shur. I think that's reasonably correct?

I hear "Were-Chest-Sure" around here.
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.
What's-this-here sauce
Does webtoon pay comic artists now? Or is that watermark there for no reason
There's a British surname, Featherstonhaugh. Many of the people with it pronounce it "Fanshaw."
