This thread needs some International Phonetic Alphabet.

Oh-ré-gon

(not sure how to write the French way to pronounce 'on', not sure it's very possible for Anglos to make it either)

Maybe you're kinda forced to make it when you say 'gong', but I'm not sure either, in short you're not supposed to hear the 'n'.
