      Huh… don’t think I’ve ever seen segue written down. I’d be writing Segway if I had to.

        Sounds like something you ride or a place that makes so so sandwiches.

          Now that I think about it… it makes sense now! A segway is a segue between two places!

        I’m still not 100% on how that is pronounced.

      I’ve heard segue being spoken in so many different ways that I have no fucking clue which is the correct. Se-geh, segway, se-goo-ee

        The second one you wrote is the correct way to pronounce it.

      I tend to read it as Sergey without the “r”.
