please pronounce the word tour correctly. the vowel is the same as the vowel in lure, not the vowel in lore. (the same is true of sure, by the way -- it is not pronounced the same way as shore.) i know it's spelled just like four, which really does rhyme with lore -- sorry about that. but, please, from this language, what did you expect?

thank you.

no. putting a little syllabic weight on a resonant (in this case, the "r") has never been a crime, and your tonic vowel is still the vowel in "two". so you officially have my permission (which is worth this much [.] [ggg]) to continue pronouncing "tour" as you've been doing.

:-D
