Just what the subject line asks: How do *YOU* pronounce Uranus?
FYI it's the seventh planet in our system, classified as a Class I ice giant.
 


 
I pronounce it the way that I was taught in school: yer AIN'us.
How's about you?

I always have heard it pronounced it as Yer'Ain'us so that's how I pronounced it.
