Down in England it's the same as lose (as in loo, poo and jew) - it's the 's' sound that is different.

I pronounce it "loo-sss" where the "oo" is short as in "cook", and the "sss" is long, and is a hiss and not a buzz.
Q: how do you pronounce LOSE?
I pronounce it "looo-zz" where the "ooo" is long as in "coo", and the "zz" is short, and is a buzz, not a hiss.
This does mean that I never lose track of the meanings
