I know it's wares with a z, but I've always pronounced it "Juarez" in my head. Never gave it a thought until now!

- dvtrn 8y agoNever gave it a thought until now! Neither did I! And I'm a bit humored to see other people pronounced it like that too :) I wonder what causes it, regional dialect or something? I'm part-Mexican, grew up bilingual and it just sort of happened without thinking about it, I discovered 'warez', immediately pronounced it "Juarez" (without the Spanish jota inflection) and it took 30 years (today) to learn it's 'wares'.
- rconti 8y agoI had a friend who insisted on saying "juarez". Annoyed the hell out of me! :)
