In reference to the Arch User Repository, do you say Ore? Arr? Our? Do you say A U R? Or do you just say the full Arch User Repository?

It’s the “arrrrrr” matey!
I have not been initiated into any of this. I’d pronounce it like “aura” without the a, and a longer R
I’d speak it that way to myself.
But when telling others, I just go with the safer “A.U.R.”, because almost every time I am speaking, it is to someone who is hearing it the first time.
A U R
coming from a language with consistent pronunciation I pronounce it “aur” like other comments said, like “aurum” or like in Portuguese - how it is written)
In English, Ey-You-Arr.
In Swedish, diphtonged Aw-ur, pretty similar to Our but with a more pronounced aaah sound. A-U-R would be two glottoal stops (Ahh-Uuh-Err) and is pretty uncomfortable to pronounce in Swedish.
our
Same way I say arch, but without the ch
A-U-R for me, personally.
А У Р
I pronounce it AUR btw.
(In all seriousness I pronounce it like Aura without the 2nd A)
Definitely not like OUR (in the sense of owning from community perspective). No seriously, I pronounce it like most do and say each letter on their own like a pirate.
In Dutch, au is a fixed diphthong that’s part of many of our normal words. /ʌu/… approximately. So that’s how I pronounce it… in my head. I don’t think I’ve ever really had reason to say it out loud, though.
reason to say it out loud
But then how do you tell everyone you meet where to find extra packages…? Asking for a friend
Ahhhooooer
English: [ɔ:]. It rhymes with “dinosaur”.
Portuguese: [ä’uɾ]. Basically how it’s spelled.
