Say hi to the other folks on the Azure team from us.

[hn_throwaway_99]

I have literally never heard anyone mispronounce Azure.

[varikin]

Really? 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

[quickthrower2]

Clearly the latter gov’nr

[vollmond]

Is 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.

[cddotdotslash]

I 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".

Same. I just always associated it with the colour.

Go 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

[aqme28]

Because you can pronounce it a dozen different ways and thankfully people still know what you're talking about.

Azyure vs Azher?

[legitster]

I have taken to giving it extra flair everytime I pronounce it to a Microsoft person.

"ah-ZOOR-ay"
