I say it the way it’s spelled. Other, perhaps more common pronunciations came about out of laziness. People just slurring the syllables together and now they’ve all agreed that’s how it’s pronounced because that’s how “everyone pronounces it”.
If that’s true for this and so many other words, then why don’t we just change the spelling to match the pronunciation we’ve “all agreed on?”
Right now, a problem schools are having is they’re trying to teach kids how to read without teaching letter sounds. Why? I have no fucking idea, it’s stupid.
My kid read above his grade level throughout school and at a college level in high school, because WE taught him. If we had relied on the schools alone, he would have floundered.
A critical look at “SoR”, or the Science of Reading movement that has left so many kids unable to read at grade level, sometimes falling four or five grades behind:

Dump him, he’s a chud. Look at his chuddy little hand movements, what an incel.

It’s not our fault we had to mash Franco Germanic Latin and Nordic words together
Kinda is
Fuckin English words and just rejecting half the god damn letters in it. You complain about French, but look at you! You’ve done the same thing!
We already dropped plenty of letters from it; it used to be Weogorancaesterscir (probably “the country of the stronghold of the people of the bending river”).
Believe it or not the French are also to blame for this
What the heck accent is that meant to be when it’s at home?
At our house we just say un-pronouncable sauce, or Lea & Perrins.
