Is Laos pronounced with the “S” or without?

Without (also, stretch the vowel sound). The “s” comes from a corruption of a French transliteration, or something.

It is without, although you will come across many people who pronounce the ‘S’, probably because it’s easier to say. Resist the temptation to join them!
