How do I pronounce "Dude"?
How do I pronounce "Dude"? Are "Dyude" or "Dood" both valid or Only "Dood" is the right way of saying?
This question comes into my mind because words like "Stupid" is pronounced as "Styupid" in British Accent and "Stoopid" in American Accent.
Just curious to if it is applicable to this word as well, since I've heard many a times my friends yelling out "Dyude! Come here..!" etc... I believe "Dood" is the right way. But some says it can be pronounced as "Dyude" as well. I'm confused, please help...

Alinka( dju:d)- this is the right pronouncation.It's not true. Actually both [dju:d] and [du:d] pronunciations are fine but the first one is British, while the second one is rather American.

In American English it starts the same way as the verb DO.
DUDE = DOOD.
"Stupid" is STOOpid.
If you watch South Park you can hear the word "dude" several time in each episode.

Alinkawell, you know that 'dude' is an American wordSomebody must have told you lies. The pronunciation doesn't differ according to its meaning.

"Dude" is by now quite a universal word and it's used even outside of English speaking countries. Yo
