I often hear this word pronounced as 'fowcuws' or 'focuws'.

So, let's break it down and listen to the subtle nuances in the word.

It begins with 'fow'.

ใ€Œใตใ†ใ€ใงๅง‹ใพใ‚Šใพใ™ใ€‚
00:26
So it's an F sound, the bottom lip touches the top teeth.

00:32
And then it's a long 'ow' as in 'go' - 'fow'.

ใใ—ใฆใ€ใใ‚Œใฏ 'go' - 'fow' ใฎใ‚ˆใ†ใซ้•ทใ„ 'ow' ใงใ™ใ€‚
00:36
So it's not a new pure O sound, it's a long 'ow' vowel.

00:42
So basically, you open your mouth for the O and then you

้–‰ใ˜ใฆ W ใฎ้Ÿณ 'fow' ใ‚’้ณดใ‚‰ใ—ใพใ™ใ€‚
00:49
So you really want to visualize this word spelled with W - 'fowcus'.

Then you shift to a K sound, a schwa, and an S - k's.
