How do you say Oreo?

[addler]

DP and I can't agree.

Short or long O?

I say the o as in lock, DP says o as in oar.

Oh-rea-oh

Short o for me

Well this has been entirely unhelpful

Oar

Oar ee oh.

Oar - ee - oh

O as in lock

I say Oreo with a short "o"

My DH says "oh-reo" like the O in OJ

Oar-ee-oh. I grew up in the US and that's how I remember saying it then?

O reo

Oreo is an American brand, so I pronounce it as they do : OAR-ee-oh, with the emphasis firmly on the first syllable.

oar-ee-oh

Didn't realise there was any other way to
say it!

O-rio with an O like in Oscar.

O-rio.

I'm now singing Holly Johnson's 'Americanos' in my head...

@MadMadMadamMim

O-rio.

I'm now singing Holly Johnson's 'Americanos' in my head...

I'm thinking of Wreck-It Ralph.

O-rio, OH-REO.

O-ree-oh

to rhyme with

Lorry-o

Now i want a bloody Oreo

Orr-ree-oh
