How do you pronounce this word and where are you from?
The word: SURE.
The options:
1) SHORE
2) SH-ERR
The story:
I've recently been criticized for pronouncing it as option number one. SHORE. I'm wondering if this is a regional thing? I'm originally from the midwest, but spent 10 years on the east coast where I definitely lost my midwest accent and adopted a more cool NY one with longer vowels — maybe it's that influence?
The internet:
Google says SHORE. Just google, how do you pronounce Sure). She sells sea shells by the sea SURE, baby!
The question:
How do you pronounce, and what region are you from? (Don't have to get specific!)
