OK,try it in English, as no one from here would get it wrong but allegedly
some Americans or Australians have pronounced it 'Lugerberuger'!

In American English, :^), I would probably say, "low-burrow", but it could
easily be one of these "Greenwitch" type pronunciations, where the only
rules to follow are traditional-historical, and not according to any normal
rules of pronunciation at all.

I will get crucified by the people who put the pronunciations in
dictionatris but:

Luff-berer -ish

Slough as in plough

Loughborough Lough not as in plough...

I'm not sure that Greenwitch is unusual, though I can't think of any other
examples at the moment!

Well, you can justify the "Luff", because of "tough" and "rough", but I
can't see any justification for the berer-ish.......

Lough should be the same as slough (pronounced sluff), so I'd guess it's
"luffburrow"
