How do you pronounce "executor"?
What the title says. Just curious where the emphasis is. Is it like the job, exECutor, or like the verb EXecutor, or exeCUtor, or what?
If I were spelling it out, it'd be kind of like: egg zeck you tor with equally stressed syllables and not quite "egg" in the beginning. The US pronunciation on the Cambridge Dictionary site is close. I've recorded a voice memo of me saying it, but transferring it off my phone is a PITA and I'm in the middle of something now, so I'll try to get that cropped and uploaded later.
I'd say, /ex/ecu/tor/, as in one who executes things. I remember trying Executor, and it not being able to handle Resedit, lol.

Thank you!
Some slight necroposting here... The Executor 2.0 CD from 1996 comes with an FAQ that actually answers this question:
Question 1.7. What is the correct pronunciation?
Ig-ZEK-yu-tor
So, basically the same way you'd refer to the executor of a legal will.
