How do you pronounce Fluther?

Asked by Phillyzero (129points) August 17th, 2008

I’m new to fluther and was wondering…how is it actually pronounced? Is it floo-ther, or fluh-ther (sounding) like flutter almost) or some other one all together.

“Fluther” is pronounced /‘flʌ ðɚ/. It rhymes with “brother” and “mother”.
