    According to Wikipedia, the standard pronunciation is [ˈqatˤar] and the local one is [ˈɡɪtˤɑr].

      And the BBC pronunciation is "Cutter" for some damn reason

      Just like Iraq.

      I have heard Iraqis say "ih - rack"

      But bush says "eye rack" and the BBC is uh, they're fucking British, so of course they say "ih - ROCK"

      And so all the libs just assume the man from London must be saying it right. ih - ROCK

        Maybe they are saying it right and that's the English pronunciation
