[General] Pronunciation of 'Olympics'

[LiuJing]

Most dictionaries I have give the ‘O’ in Olympics an 'ə' sound as in ‘of‘.



Is the ‘ou’ sound as the letter 'O' also correct？

How about the ‘ɔ’ sound as in ‘off’？

Listen here. The pronunciation is spot-on, so I assume it's "ə".

why would you think the dictionaries might be wrong? I don't know about US English but in the UK we say 'ə'
