Dia dhuit (Dia duit in Ulster) doesn't have a 'w' sound altho it may sound like it in quick speech. It's more like a 'short-u' glide rather than 'w'. In Munster it would sound like 'deea gh(u)it' but in Connacht more like 'd'yeea gh(u)itch'.

It's regarded as quite formal nowadays. (2k3r021)

In different parts of Ireland the pronunciation may vary. Generally it is pronounced, "Deea gwit". The a is a soft a, so pronounced like the a in tramp, rather than in tray.
