XKCD #2819: Pronunciation

I pronounce the 'u' in 'pronunciation' like in 'putting' but the 'ou' in 'pronounce' like in 'wound'.


 
        [The word "Tuesday", with each letter labeled by a box with an arrow:]
    T: As in buffet
    u: As in minute
    e: As in record
    s: As in use
    d: As in moped
    a: As in bass
    y: As in gyro
