I voted number 1 but after re-reading them I think I probably say it more like number 3. I dunno, I generally say it the same way a Z-Ray, DI-PLOD-ickus.

Now how about ankylosaurus. Do y'all say ann-ky-low-saurus or ann-kee-low-saurus? I used to say it ann-kee but now I say ann-ky, most people seem to say ann-kee.

My dad used to say Ann-kee when ever he read to me about dinos (I was a young Kid) But these days I Say An-KY-LO

Maybe we should make this an official Dinosaur pronunciation Thread?

amargasaurus cazaui

Authors with varying competence have suggested dinosaurs disappeared because of meteorites...God's will, raids by little green hunters in flying saucers, lack of standing room in Noah's Ark, and palaeoweltschmerz—Glenn Jepsen

Ooh just remembered
My son of 3 calls the ankylosaur a ankileroysaurus
And the brachiosaur a bragibinosaurus
