How do you pronounce Louisville?

[ChapterNexf]

I think I’ve been pronouncing it wrong - not that it comes up that often but still.

Yes, oh dear, maybe I should stop drinking! 😆

Do you mean the arch in St. Louis?

(Which, incidentally, is pronounced Loo-iss for those who are interested.)

Unless you're singing the song.

Are you confusing Louisville and St Louis?

Yes! 😳

Isn't it something like luur-val? All slurred together?

There's a film called Elizabethtown set it Louisville and Kirsten Dunst makes a point of teaching Orland Bloom's character how to pronounce it properly. Something like Loo-vul.

I have stayed there with family many times. Locals pronounce it Loo vul
