Gyros are a tasty Greek dish but most people have been pronouncing the name wrong. I've heard gyro, hero, guy-ro and other iterations that were also close but no cigar. Here's where it gets tricky since there are apparently two, possibly three acceptable ways to say gyro, yee-ros, jee-row, or zhee-row, the last one needs a little explaining though I'm not certain I have it right but what it sounds like to me is an elongated g crossed with a z. My advice is to use one of the other pronunciations!
