Euler pronunciation

<p>So I’ve always heard Euler pronounced as "oi"ler (or, at least, the correct pronunciation). My DE teacher pronounces the Euler in “Cauchy-Euler method” as "you"ler… Is there supposed to be a difference or is he just saying it wrong?</p>

<p>I think youler is correct</p>

<p>What accent is that^?</p>

<p>According to Wikipedia it’s Standard German.</p>

<p>It’s “oi”-ler :)</p>

<p>It’s defenitely “oi”-ler. Germans pronounce Europe “oi”-ropa and euro “oi”-ro, “eu-” is always pronounced “oi-”</p>

<p>I pronounce it “oil-er” out loud, but whenever I think it I say “you-ler” :)</p>

<p>Yep, it’s “oil-er” :).</p>

<p>My teachers always taught me it was Oil-er. I could see why people would think it’s you-ler though.</p>

<p>I’ve always heard “Oy-ler” (not exactly the same as “oiler”) but I don’t speak German so I’m not sure.</p>

<p>“euler” oy as in oyster then ler, same as oiler</p>
