Yes also Leicestershire for example is pronounced Lester-sher.

>>8572820
Because it's our sauce and over our thousands of years of history place name pronunciation changed.

>>8572810
I pronounce it WUSS-TER sauce

The episode of "how it's made" for that stuff is intense.

I know of one man with the name of Raymond Luxury-Yacht, yet it is pronounced "Throatwobbler Mangrove".

Impressive, especially the onions and garlic that are pickled for 1-2 years.

Like Tabasco sauce... I'm always impressed when companies have relatively long aging processes for simple condiments or other products.

>>8572810
woyster-sure. All other pronunciations are wrong.

Gordon Ramsay and a bunch of other British chefs I watch call it "Wooster Sauce" so I've taken to call it that.

I can only assume this is from 600 years of brits being drunken layabouts who can't help but slur their words even when sober.

Christ, even the Australians made an accent out of it, y'all can't even be arsed.

Yes, it is!

What happened there then, me laddo?

>>8572938
What sure as hell didn't happen is a seven goddamned syllable word being butchered into two or three consonants, you reprobate.

>>8572925
This is correct

Why don't you show us all how you niggers spell 'colour' so we can laugh at you

>>8572966
Goes well red meat. Pretty good on grilled cheese too

>>8572961
It's not our fault that a shipment of u's from England was lost in a storm and we've had to go without for generations.

>>8572966

Marinades
God-tier steak seasoning (rub it into the meat before you cook them)
Seasoning for any kind of red-meat based stew
It's also great in beef gravy, pan sauces & reductions

>>8572961
This'll confuse 'em, Guv'ner.

>>8572925
because they just don't care enough to pronounce it
>>8572966
we'd use it on cheap, thin, on sale steak

>superfluous
srely yo mean sperflos?

>>8572816
Good god no.

>>8572991

No, those Us aren't superfluous. The one in "colour" is.

>>8572827
Where are you getting "chest" from?

>>8572995

Wait, how do you pronounce motor? Does it rhyme with colour? It doesn't in English.

>>8572995
I think yo're srely ot of yor depth here

>>8573004
English doesn't work like that though. listen to the sound of the first o in each of those two words. The u doesn't affect (please tell me I used the right one there (and also there) ) either of those.

>>8573004

The "-or" syllable is the same, but otherwise the words are different.

>>8573011

You used the right affect, and the right there. And you are correct that the u does not modify the first 'o' in colour. Because it modifies the sound of the final syllable.

>>8573004
english pronunciation isn't consistent anyway

>>8573016

You do know what 'rhyme' means? Color and motor do not rhyme, because the last syllable is sounded differently. The 'u' in colour therefore clearly did have an effect on the sound of the word, and was not superfluous.

>>8573019
>Because it modifies the sound of the final syllable.

It doesn't modify anything. It's completely superfluous.

>>8573028
>Color and motor do not rhyme

I never said they did.

>>The 'u' in colour therefore clearly did have an effect on the sound of the word

No, the previous syllable did.

>>8573039

So, are we down to baseless assertions on both sides now? I live in an area of Britain in which there is a clear difference in the sound of words like dolor or motor and the word 'colour'. It seems fairly clear that this difference is down to the presence of an additional vowel in the word, since it is the vowel sound in the word that is different. Claiming that the additional vowel is superfluous would suggest that all three words have the same vowel sound in the final syllable, which they don't.

>wuster sauce
>wor-chester-shire sauce

Correct
>wust-a-sher sauce (British pronunciation)

>>8572810
>Worcestershire sauce
>Worce - ster - shire sauce

the pronunciation makes perfect sense if you think of it like that

-ster is an old english suffix (dumpster, gangster, and so on) and -shire is also old english meaning settlement.

>"British"

Please stop using this term. Is that how the Scots and Irish and Welsh say it, is it?

As a Bostonian, it's pronounced "Wuss-ter-sheer"

>>8573052
Motor is pronounced ˈmōdər and color is pronounced ˈkələr. The second vowel sounded in both words is the same--it's the vowel of the first syllables that differ. This being the case, your u in colour is superfluous.
