Pho, po.

(at least the rice noodle company is formal and respectful, in a Filipino sense.)
I admit, I am guilty of pronouncing it before as ‘fo’ ’til I was corrected just a few months back. When I saw this delivery van about 2 weeks ago parked in harbor view, I had such a silly grin on my face and felt a sort of relief knowing that I am not the only Filipino guilty of pronouncing PHO as FO let alone PO.
The Vietnamese girl who swore to hunt me down in my own country if I mess up with ‘the powers that be’ said that its properly pronounced as “fuh” (like ‘duh’).
OK children, repeat after me, ‘FUH’. agaaaaaaaain, ‘FUH’.
