hpfan_mom:
Scholastic.com has a pronunciation guide that you can get to from
this link:
http://www.scholastic.com/harrypotter/reference/
According to this guide, the plural is horcruxes, pronounced hor-CRUX-
es. You can hear someone say the word (JKR?). Not exactly canon,
but perhaps Krum will need help with the pronunciation in Book 7 and
it will be confirmed.
