How to Pronounce Fuchsia

Till now I was of the opinion that Fuchsia is pronounced as few-see-ah, whereas my brother likes pronouncing it as Fu-ch-see-aa (like literally how the word appears) but Fuchsia is actually pronounced as few-sha!

For those of you who are wondering what it means, Fuchsia is a color (pinkish shade of red) having hex color code #FF00FF.

    Emma Saying frequently mispronounces words. The genus is named after German botanist Leonhart Fuchs. Say “fooksia” – fooks-ee-uh- to yourself a few times and you’ll never get it wrong.
