Author Topic: Is UNO pronounced YOO-NO or OO-NO  (Read 15870 times)


basically this.

If you say "you-no" than you're wrong and should feel wrong and also should go in a hole and die take a nap.

The problem is defending an "opinion" with zero basis for support or evidence.

If the marketing guys were pronouncing it "You-Know", then clearly that's the way it's said. I think they know more than you do, you know?

They "Do-Know" more than "You-Know".

Uno (/ˈuːnoʊ/; from Italian and Spanish for 'one') is an American card game

Besides the fact that the pronunciation is right there, it's also an American game. The title of it should follow American pronunciation (or more specifically, the appropriated Italian/Spanish pronunciation).

It's like pronouncing the German 'die' as 'die' just because "I speak English and in America/England we pronounce it 'die'!". You don't. You pronounce something as it is pronounced in the language it comes from.

Thank you, everybody, for agreeing with me that the correct pronunciation is "You-Know". I was worried that this website was full of people who didn't know how to speak correctly.

okay, but alt is still right

no but it's a pretty valid point
anyone can edit it through an approval process that still requires citation.
