Ur-sit I am not dyslexic, but the other two pronunciations sound weird so my mind ignores them :P

Toady once said in one of the DFtalks that there are many ways of saying "Urist"

Rr-ist.

Except when I feel like "That can't possibly be the intended pronunciation," and then it's Oo-rist with a slight guttural/Scottish tone (not all ooooo and aaah tone of oo like you're watching fireworks or something).

I suppose somewhere out there is somebody who pronounces it Uh-wrist. *ninja'd* Ha, he beat me to it in fact.

I have an idea. Let's play a game where you win by being as quiet as possible.
I get it, it's one of those games where losing is fun!
