It is true. There are 3 ways to pronounce VASE. I am not sure if there is an official rule, but I am from an English speaking Country and have spoke English all my life. I have heard it pronounced 3 ways and none of them are wrong. Vase can rhyme with face, faze, or saws. There are other words we have more than one pronunciation for. There is a song, �Let �s call the whole thing off � with some examples
You can find the lyrics here (the song is sung kind of fast.
I saw Pajamas the funny way. Some people pronounce �H � with an A sound in front �Aych � and others pronounce it with an H in front �Haych � |

Hi!
I agree with kordullaaa,
It`s [va:z] in BrE and [veis; veiz] in the US
Therefore, nowadays you could use any of the two! :) |
