Bình luận
I count 9 pronunciations.
- Since slough is pronounced like plough in UK and like through in USA, it adds nothing to the list.
- Lough is Irish Gaelic, not English, so I don't count that.
- On the other hand, you can add hough to the list (an alternative spelling of hock).
My last name is Loughry which I pronounce lockry, although some people pronounce it Lowry. My belief is lockry is the original, correct way to pronounce this name as it has endured this pronounciation for a few hundred years, like passing it down from one generation to another. I've also heard it pronounced lauthry so to each their own.
I agree, Anonymous. They do sound absolutely different.
""Slough" rhymes with "stuff," and "plough" rhymes with "now."---> CORRECT!
"
its nine pronunciations BWAHHAHA IM WHEEZING
"Plough" and "slough" are exactly the same, so that makes nine pronunciations, not ten, doesn't it?

No, they're different. "Slough" rhymes with "stuff," and "plough" rhymes with "now."
Depends where you're from. There is a town called Slough in England, pronounced to rhyme with "now". But even if you pronounce it like "stuff", that's still a duplicate of #2, "rough". So either way, there are 9 official pronunciations of "ough".
In that case, slough is the same as rough, which is already on the list. Either way it is not an additional pronunciation.
