In the US aloe vera is pronounce al-OH VAIR-ah. The name
Vera is usually pronounced VEER-ah in the US but will sometimes be pronounced VAIR-ah.
(I edited because sometimes I swear it should be AL-oh and sometimes I feel it should al-OH. It's one of those words where there isn't a very distinct emphasis.)
