My mom and grandmother are saying that homogeneous is pronounced "him-odge-on-ized", but I know for a fact that it is pronouced "hoh-moh-gee-nee-us". Who is correct?

Your mom and Grandma, silly.

Both are correct. Generally in biology it's pronounced the first way, though.


"him-odge-on-ized"

Actually, I pronounce it hoh-mah-juh-niss.

I pronounce it the same way OP does.

yeah what the hell, how can you pronounce "homogeneous" as "ho-mah-jenn-ized"


I pronounce it 'Ho-Maw-Jen-Us"

If you pronounce it any other way you're stupid and handicapped.
