How do you pronounce 'insulin'?

[UpUpUpU]

Sorry it is random! Just been watching a documentary on Lucy Letby and one of the people of there was pronouncing 'insulin' in a way that was making my teeth itch! 😂

How do you pronounce it?

😁
What a challenge the English language is!

I think the problem comes with the U - pronounce it like the U in Music.

But I was taught by a real stickler who insisted that Susan is pronounced Syoosan 😆( much to Susan's dismay!)

Like this!

In syi lin

Two ways around here.
In-sull-in
Or
In-seewl-in

Ins sa lin
Been using it 23 years

That's how my nurse said it

Sorry if I missed this but how did the person in the documentary pronounce insulin?

Ins-lin which is probably wrong

OP hasn’t been back to tell us.

This. I'm not Scottish! I'm near London.

In-syu-lin

In suh Lin

Ince- you- lin although I’ve heard In-sir-lin too.

As I say, the sue bit is not emphasised, the u bit is more, but emphasis is on In and Lin

we had 40000 employees world wide. Stick any 50 in a room and they’d say it 6 ways slightly differently. And we made the stuff and talked about it all the time.

it’s just a flipping accent and dialect…it matters not a jot really.

Google yod-coalescence for more info.

In-shoo-lin

In-sa-lin

I’m sure Sean Connery would have pronounced it “ inch-shall-in”.

I pronounce it “in-suh-lin”

To add to my previous post, think of the inserted "y" in "super". It sounds "s[yoo]ooper" old-fashioned, but it's characteristic of very much older RP speakers . The trend is towards dropping.

I've just had a few nice moments finding how Dorothy Hodgkin pronounced it, this one has an American too (Linus Pauling) - a little different but not much.

for those that say in-shuh-lin - Do you all speak like Sean Connery?

I’ve said it so many times reading this, I don’t know how I pronounce it any more!

In- sa - lin

I say it around 20 times a day so I'm pretty sure I'm right 😂
