Do you pronounce this like ishoo or like issyew?
Is this a normal / posh divide or is one of them just a mispronunciation?
It really annoys me when people say issyew. I just heard it in a video I'm watching so I just thought I'd see what other people think.

This!!!
hahah I meant like the words issue and tissue. Although I do sneeze like tchoo..like a little cat.
It might be a regional accent think like bath/barth.
I can't either.
The difference is with the first syllable.
Ish
Iss
The second one too.
-oo
-yew
Mine is kind of inbetween I guess. Of course I'm a foreigner.
I have the foreigner combo pronounciation as well
Ish - you
tish - you
Woops. It was a bit too early in the morning...!
I say "issue" like Ish-ooo
And "tissue" like Tish-ooo
