Google says that Americans pronounce it "Gee-uh-teen" (gee as in 'geese') and the British pronounce it "Gil-uh-teen" I'm American and I learned the "British" pronunciation in school and used it up until a College English professor snootily corrected me.

Applewhite posted:I'm american and pronounce it "gill-o-teen." I almost put o instead of "uh" but I wanted to quote Google. The gee/gill difference is the real difference IMHO.

i think the o in guillotine is just universally variable based on how succinctly you pronounce it any given time. it's both an uh and and o.

Always used the British one, but someone decided to correct me on my pronunciation recently. Nice to know I can tell them to jog on in the future.

i had an old coworker who grew up in the blurry anglo/franco zone at the border and he spoke with a generic ontario accent but pronounced poutine as "put-SIN" like they would in quebec and it was so cringey lol. that's how i imagine people think of me when i say guillotine

all pronunciations of guillotine are valid. we are united in our cause and can not let niche issues distract us from the overall class war we are engaged in together.

I say gee-uh-teen when referencing the MMA choke and gill-uh-teen when referencing the billionaire reducer  I guess both could share the same purpose if you tried hard enough
