How to pronounce typhoid?

My friend got typhoid last year, and I remember us discussing the pronunciation then. I just want to confirm, what's the correct way to pronounce 'typhoid'?

Hey, it's 'tahy-foyd'! Don't stress too much about the exact pronunciation, most people will understand. Just focus on staying hydrated and eating well if you or someone you know has it, okay?

It's 'tahy-foyd'. For recovery, rest is crucial. Once the doctor gives a green signal, light walks can really help get your energy back. Hydration is also super important.

Oh, 'tahy-foyd'! I always heard 'tie-foid' in movies. So it's 'tahy-foyd'. Thanks for clearing that up!

It's 'tahy-foyd', for sure. My hostel friend got it last year, was down for weeks. So yeah, good to know the word, better to avoid the disease!

It's 'tahy-foyd'. If you are asking because of symptoms, please, please get yourself checked by a doctor immediately. Don't take chances with fever.
