S Brits please note: it's pronounced Shin-ook (as in look) and not Chin-uke (as in Luke), which seems to be preferred "Rupert" pronunciation for helicopters of the same name
Ok, agree with you there but then can we also agree that

ALUMINIUM

is pronounced Ahhll-you-mini-um and not ah - loo - min - um

(note there are TWO I's in the spelling of Aluminium).

Thus endeth today's installment of english pronounciations......
