@@veng1974 Curious; How would you choose to say "Throughput" or "Thoroughly". The "OU" sound is not always phonetic, at least in the way you describe. If phonetics were absolute you might spell the word "R-A-O-W-T-E-R", of course depending where you come from. This is another important thing to remember: It doesn't matter! American English and British English are in many cases, two different beasts when it comes to pronunciation. Neither/Neither is right or wrong. The presenter is of course going to pronounce the word 'OUT' the way that he does, because that's the way that this word is pronounced whether you're English or American (or any other English speaking type of human). Accents can change certain words. Scotland and the north of England may speak with a different emphasis on vowels, for example, but that's the beauty of the richness built in to the marvellous understanding that WE ARE ALL ACTUALLY DIFFERENT AND THAT'S OK.
