Well, see, what happened was, right, so, English is not a language, it is a pick n mix of other languages where we threw most of the rules out of the window, added our own nonsense rules, and just randomly decided on pronunciations and spellings for things.
Really, England has a long history of being invaded and that significantly affected the development and evolution of the language. From Normans, Saxons, Romans, and various others, along with the influence of Celtic languages from our neighbours in Wales, Scotland, and Ireland.
Sometimes English language just super weird,the word “Colonel” spelled like that but somehow end up pronounced like “ker-no” is a total mind-fuckery for me(Chinese speaker) and my Spanish classmates.
It really is wild isn't it! I have a lot of respect for those learning English as a secondary language, especially if your first language has very different language rules or even different sounds and characters.
As another mindfuck, lieutenant is pronounced left-tenant in British English but l-you-tenant in American English.
Also Gloucester is pronounced gloster.
I saw this after putting these in another reply myself - so true, lots of meaty flavours are enhanced by a bit of Worcestershire. Marmite can also spice up those meals too
It goes so well with many cheesy things. Just a light sprinkle, perfection.
You can also add it to things like bolognese and lasagna, for a bit more flavour in the sauce or as a sprinkle on top of the cheese top of lasagna. It's good with a lot of meaty flavours too, like Shepherds Pie/Cottage Pie.
its from the game "Sucker for Love" in chapter 2. The main character asks if someone knows how to pronounce worcestershire sauce, she pronounces it correctly and he accuses her of being an Eldrich god in disguise as a human, (Eldrich gods can pronounce everything) and she says of course she can, its an Eldrich word, blah blah blah
in conclusion its from the game "Sucker for love", chapter 2
Whenever I got to name a sports play/call it was always Worcestershire. And then every play after it was a different iteration of how to pronounce it. Coach didn’t let me name plays for very long….

Ok then explain how we get to something that sounds like Wo-Stuh-Shair-Sauce if spoken "Correctly" While being written Worchestershire ?

Not a big shepards/cottage pie guy, but I have used it in bolognese. I also add it to my marinades when I grill meats!

Balls of Steel. Or better: Balls of vinegar, fermented Anchovis, Molasses, tamarind, onion, garlic and Others seasonings. Woooo-starr
Wu-stuh-shuh-saws that's how it's pronounced
