I will always pronounce doge "doggy". Forever.
The only alternative pronunciation that I will ever use is an occasional "doggeh"
A "do͡uʒ" is an elected chief of state lordship.
A "dɔgi" or "dɔgɛ" is a silly little shibe.
Huge difference.
CNN thinks they know it all...
But in all honesty, it's really silly to see anybody proclaiming that there's one true pronunciation that everybody should use. The word started orthographically, and it was supposed to be a misspelling of the word dog. Nobody in existence on the planet (a qualifier I'm obviously qualified to use) has ever referred to a canine with a word that contains a voiced alveopalatal fricative. That would just be silly. Why are people using that phoneme now?
CUZ THEI NO KNOW WAY OF SHIBE
