Re: How do you pronounce 'orche'?
Okra is a vegetable and ochre is a color. Oaker is the only correct way to pronounce ochre,case closed. It's an odd word for our language,but just because you thought wrong for a long time doesn't make it right. It's pronounced oaker...just oaker. That's a fact.

Re: How do you pronounce 'orche'?
I have never heard of it called oak-er, only oak-ruh
I think it, like everything else, depends on where you are from (accents) to how it will be pronounced. All I know is it is not pronounced or-cheee as it is spelled (or I hope not anyway lol) |

Re: How do you pronounce 'orche'?
Am I the only one who became familiar with this term in Kindergarten from a Crayola 64 crayon box set (the one with the flip top and cool crayon sharperner in the back...)?
