I think it was originally derived from the French. So it should probably be pronounced Amateurrre (rolling your r's)
But I find it all falls to pieces when "ish" is put on the end - Amateurish. Try that you fecking CHER people !! Then pick your teeth up off the floor

Pretty much. The spelling of words usually inform people on how to pronounce them.

Bloke at work also appears on the stage as a variety performer - eating the contents of his tool box.
He doesn't do it professionally - he's just an 'ammer chewer.
