How do you pronounce Waze?

There is no voting, nor is it up for debate or discussion really. It is pronounced as you say, and as in said in the videos you can watch on the website. Once you hear how the company pronounces its own name, I don't see why there would be any "debate." :mrgreen:

Ways. As in, "there are many different ways to get to the same place".

although I will admit to pronouncing it "wah-zey" when I first downloaded it :?
