Since the subject has been brought up....

I've lived a fair amount of places around the country and even overseas - and gyro is one of those words that is pronounced differently everywhere.

Since you grew up with Greek alphabets and all, please settle this once and for all for me - as I have been 'corrected' from any of these pronounciations to one of the others and at this point when I want a gyro, I just point for fear of saying it wrong.

Is it:

JEE-ro

GEE-ro (hard G)

JIE-ro (long I)

or GUY-ro?
