[edit] Pronunciation

Hey, man, who's providing these pronunciations? Do I really have to say 'euka' or is it all right to go on saying 'oker'? In the US, 'o' is not a diphthong and final 'r' is not silent.

All the dictionaries I have found say it's pronounced like "owe curr". – Quadell (talk) (random) 16:28, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
This is a phonemic transcription so it doesn't really matter that the /ɘʊ/ is not diphthongal, however, you're absolutely right about the final /r/. Jimp 15:51, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
