The real pronounciation is Eee-Mew.

Answer 6

Did you live in Canada? I know thats how they say it there. And in England. Most people in America say E-moo.

The correct way is E-moo. Phonetically(e'myoo)line over the 2 oo.

The y is blended in the word for correct pronunciation, not used as a letter by itself.
