How do you pronounce 'chorizo' ?
Another meal out, another argument about how to pronounce 'chorizo' ....
Is it
CHORE - ITS - OWE
CORE - EE - SEW
CAR - ITH - OWE
or one of any number of other combinations ??
Anyone here have Spanish as their first language?

That depends on what form of spanish your friends speaks, judging by the way he says to pronounce it he is from europe and not a latin american country

Since he's Spanish, I imagine he (or she) is from Spain.

Ibiza as I recall, why he moved from their to London still mystifies me but he's handy to have around in a Tapas bar.

Re: How do you pronounce 'chorizo' ?
it is pronounced differently in different parts of spain, in the south, for example, it will be with a Z, whereas in Cataluña it will be TH
i don't know about South American countries, but the variation in accent in Spain is just like the "class" or "clarss" debate here
