I say it that way but it's mostly because nobody seems to be able to provide a consensus and that one is at least phonetic.

It took many many tries before I figured out what GR was saying when he would say "PASS DA."

Lots of folks in Brooklyn... Hell NYC period call them that. They know that they're wrong. They just don't care.

"Jai" or "Gi" as in "Giant" and "roe".

When me and my sister were 10 my dad took us to DC and we ate in the old Post Office Pavillion. We had gyros, which the owner of the restaurant explained were pronounced yeeros .

So thats when I started calling them that, and just never stopped. Not a hipster thing, just habit. >_>

That's not hipster, it's how it's pronounced

Pronouncing loan words that have widely accepted local pronounciation, with the pronunciation of origin, usually carries hipster undertones.

I was half-joking in any case lol.

Yeah it's yee-ro

I mean my name is derived from a Korean name, but it sounds exactly like how you would say it in English. Yet for whatever fucking reason, a lot of Americans try to say it in some weird fictionally oriental way. I'm like bruh, whatever you're doing makes me feel worse, just Americanize it because that's literally how it's supposed to sound

So in a similar case, I think the origin of the word should be respected, but not forced if not familiar. I'm not gonna bag on them if they pronounce it wrong if they had no reason to realize it's pronounced another way
