For my sanity:

Foyer is pronounced "FOY-ay". There is no other correct way to pronounce it, unless you are actually de langue francais, in which case it is more like "fwaje".

Thank you for your time.

Haha oh man, I ALWAYS mispronounce that one.

You know what really irritates me though? When people say chaise longue as "chase-loungue". D:

I haven't heard that one! But I have honestly only ever heard 'foy-er' on TV, so I guess my region has generally good French loan-word pronunciation.
