Default Re: genre pronunciation

I've always pronounced it more or less à la French /JEAN-ruh/, where the first syllable is the French word for 'John' starting with palato-alveolar fricative (not the English affricate), the vowel is lightly nasalised, and the '-n' is not pronounced, and where the vowel in the second syllable ('-uh') is schwa.
