i've always heard it as "shweps"...

 

[Obi-Wan zenabI]

Never heard it. Always thought it was SHOWps.

 

[Obi-Wan zenabI]

So yeah, halfway between "Shups" and "Showps"

It's pronounced "Schöps", of course.

To pronounce it correctly, purse your lips like you're going to say the letter "O", but say long "A" instead.
