    noos = noose (rhymes with goose)

    nooz has teh pronounced "z" sound--not an "s" sound.

    It's really no use in me arguing my point.

    Obviously you're going to say noos and nooz sound the same because you already replace "z" with "s" in all of your words anyway.

    What? I voted for "nyous" or "nyouz", either way.
