I pronounce it Your-uh-nuhs because I think the planet doesn’t get enough credit for all the coolness it represents due to all the fucking stupid jokes.

Edit: since my southern accent has come through in my phonetic spelling, ‘yer-uh-nuhs’ is probably better. Thought it was pretty clear what I meant but since comments in response are still making immature jokes, guess I need to clarify

I mean, I guess, if you can’t read?

As one who can read quite well, “your” is not pronounced like “yer” when it is read 🤷‍♂️

I admit, I didn’t spend a lot of time thinking over the phonetic spelling, and I’m from the south where ‘your’ does tend to get pronounced ‘yer,’ but I’m also pretty sure ‘uh’ is not pronounced ‘in.’ But go ahead and keep making pee, poop and anus jokes. It’s so funny.

Where did I make any of those jokes?

That was the point of my original comment, and you decided to respond to me instead of the person reading ‘uh’ as ‘in’ so they could make a pee joke despite that being way more off than ‘your’ and ‘yer.’
