Hey, we pronounce both the same, too. Sorry English, that's on you and you alone.
Uh huh
And how would you pronounce it compared to a German?
The I as in "free", but shorter (not drawn out) and the u as in "urban", maybe? It's hard to find English words where they make the french U sound, but it's pronounced the same pretty much all the time.
Blame the French.
