The correct pronunciation is Flor-DUH, am I wrong?

Depends on what part of Florida you’re from. If North Florida, it’s something like that, but more like “Flo(uhr)-Duh.” If you’re Latin(a)(o), it’s more like it sounds in Spanish. If you’re not from the Southern part of the state, which is in the north in Florida, it’s closer to the Spanish pronunciation but not quite the same.

And if you’re a Northern snowbird, it’s all over the place, but it usually gets on my nerves because most snowbirds here are from New York and Pennsylvania and such, so it sounds like you’re grating cheese with your mouth.
