Related: About this forumHow do you pronounce "pharaoh"?
Besides the fact that the Egyptian-American owner misspelled it as: "American Pharoah", most people say it differently than I do.
I say it with a long "a" not like it was the card game "Faro" with a short "a".
The Brits say it more like I do:
