Pronunciation: What is the diference into: "Where" an "were"
Hello. Yesterday somebody asked me to pronounce the following sentence:
"where were you yesterday?"
I pronunced the two words ("where" and "were") identical but, I think that it's incorrect.
How is the correct pronunciation?

The 'ere' in 'were' is pronounced like in 'her' or 'fur' (replacing the 'h' and 'f' with a 'w').
The 'ere' in 'where' is pronounced like in 'hair', 'fair', 'share', 'there' (replacing 'h', 'f', 'sh' and 'th' with a 'w').

In where you have to pronounce a diphthong while in were - one long vowel
