During or D(ju)ring? Hello! I am confused about pronunciation of the word "during". I heard two versions and I am quite worried that my "during" can be a "bad" one. Could someone explain why people say it differently, please? Is this another case British vs American English? Or maybe completely something else? Which one shall I use to be understood more easily? Two versions I meant: http://vocaroo.com/i/s1XzunG0UoNr Thank you!

As you're living in England, Dan, you should go with the most usual pronunciation here, which sounds more or less like 'jooring'. The 'd' and the 'y' sounds blend together to make a sound like a 'j'. That's why 'dew' and 'due' both sound like 'jew', and 'duty' sounds like 'jewty'. There are a few regional British accents - Norfolk, for example - where the 'y' sound isn't present in these words, but these are the exceptions to the rule.

Both are acceptable in the UK - though I tend to lean more to the "juring" pronunciation too.

I think it depends on the accent, here in Australia I would pronounce it 'juring' I don't think there is a wrong way, but thats only my opinion
