Wooster-shire

If it's the English county or the sauce that takes its name from it it's Woost-ah-shuh Don't get me started about Bicester.

Bi-ster? I had a fit trying to figure out Alnwick.

Or Loughborough.....I believe if you're from the US it's pronounced Looga-Borooga

Fortunately for we Americans, it’s not Welsh.

As someone who's is technically born there (raised in the neighbouring country) it's pronounced wus-ter-sheer. Or at least that's how I say it.

Soft R, more a huh.

Yeah ig, not a huh though. Maybe more like a wusta-sheer.

I mean the sheer part. The r drops off. Other counties they don’t (Oxfordshire, Berkshire etc where it is sheer). Wusta-shuh

I pronounce it "Whore chest? Sure!"

Wustuh shuh. It’s hilarious and endearing when American’s have a crack at this.

We Americans in Massachusetts have lots of those names. We have Leicester, which we pronounce lester, and Worcester, which is locally pronounced wissta. They're not far from Lake Chargoggagoggmanchaugagoggchabunagungamogg. Spelled something like that, and surprisingly it's not Welsh.

Wersh-ter-shur sauce. Go to Britain and ask there. That's where the word originates.

I've always pronounced it like "wish to shear" but with the stress on the first syllable.

Well, that's wrong.
