Say hi to the other folks on the Azure team from us.
- hn_throwaway_99 7y agoI have literally never heard anyone mispronounce Azure.
- iNate2000 7y agoAzyure vs Azher?
- cddotdotslash 7y agoI have (albeit not terribly). I've heard the "A" pronounced like in "appetite" and also like the "A" in "America" with the "zure" sounding like the "sure" in "closure".
- varikin 7y agoReally? I never know if it's AZH-uhr or az-YOOR. I just googled it and apparently it's the first for US pronunciation and the second for the UK. https://english.stackexchange.com/a/26645 https://english.stackexchange.com/a/26645
- quickthrower2 7y agoClearly the latter gov’nr
- vollmond 7y agoIs the accent on the first or second syllable? Is the A pronounced "uh" or like in "apple"? I honestly don't know, having never experienced that word in verbal conversation, only books. Though I don't think it's bad enough to be an example of OP's problem by any means.
- aqme28 7y agoBecause you can pronounce it a dozen different ways and thankfully people still know what you're talking about.
- xeromal 7y agoGo to a microsoft conference and behold. I went to the LEAP conference this year and all the danes seemed to pronounce it as Az-your and I was the hillbilly pronouncing it Az-er
- 52-6F-62 7y agoSame. I just always associated it with the colour. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azure_(color) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azure_(color)
- legitster 7y agoI have taken to giving it extra flair everytime I pronounce it to a Microsoft person. "ah-ZOOR-ay"
