How do you pronounce Jaguar?

My latest post at the BBC America web site is garnering some discussion. In the UK we say Jag-yoo-ar, and in the US it's more of a Jag-wahr. Is there a right way? Pop over to learn more.

  1. I remember when we first moved there, my kids started saying "Jag-war" because they were really into the cartoon Go Diego Do. I found it weird at the time, but I'm sure there isn't a wrong or right way.....

    Never thought there'd be another way!
