How do you pronounce horror?

17 Comments

Technically it's supposed to be pronounced like whore, but lots of people pronounce it differently for obvious reasons. What about you?

    Wait, how do you figure it's technically supposed to be pronounced "whore"? I don't think so....and not according to the dictionary either. Anyway, I say hor-or.

    I say horra but people with a stronger version of my accent would say or-oh.

            As did I; both the white rose of Yorkshire and the red rose of Lancashire raise their eyebrows at your ambivalent pinkness. Have at ye!

            P.S. Yes, roses have been genetically modified to have eyebrows now. In my mind.

    I agree with the earlier two comments, I say it like "Horra.Hoh-Ruhr".
    I'm Australian though so it could be influence by my accent.
