I lived near Worcester Mass, which is pronounced (by the locals) "Woostah" .  R's are silent.  So the correct pronunciation is - Woostahsheeah.   

Went to a school with a guy from Woostah. That accent sure stood out in Kansas! I always remember a water fountain was a ‘bubbla’😀

Worcester like rooster.  shire like sheer.  

C'mon man, I thought this was settled!! 🤪 Shire like sure. Sheer is close but wrong. And anybody that pronounces sure as shoe-er is banned from the conversation. Yorkshire, Berkshire, Hampshire, Worcestershire 

Wooster is Boston semi-literate mangling of Worchester.

Worster sure

I'm only telling you how they say it in Worcestershire, UK.  You can be an ugly American who doesn't speak the language if you so choose.  But me?  Nope, I got tact.

I think this British guy agrees with me 😀
