Why Oregon isn't pronounced like organ? Or is it?

[Q-T_3.14.exe]

Why it isn't or is it? Should it be or shouldn't? Let's discuss.

Probably ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There are organs in Oregon.

Don't think I've ever heard anyone from Washington pronounce it other then Washington but maybe Vancouver is weird compared to the rest of the State.

Funny, I've lived in Vancouver too. It's Washington - just without the DC.

Ahh yes, I do this as well. Although I thought people from Oregon did pronounce it that way

I don't know accents in NA very well. I know like 3 accents

If you pronounce it ending with anything similar to "gone" then that's what you will be.

Eh, it is much easier to just call it Oregano ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I thought it was pronounced Oh-Ray-Gun.

They legalized hard drugs, it could be pronounced any way you want at this point, I'm sure a lot of the population there won't mind.
