How do you pronounce reverb?
Ruh-verb or ree-verb?

The second way and anyone who pronounces it the first way is almost certainly a serial killer.

Yes, the first rule of English grammar is to be as inconsistent as possible !

Then there’s the aspect of regional dialect and cultural supremacy. The first may be Gaelic influenced. Scots mostly interprets as English, but it isn’t. Etc.

It has yet to be proven you are actually a psychopath. You may only be lacking a conscience and therefore only a sociopath. And there is no evidence of your pronunciation of reeeevurb here.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE(verb) Well, my ex used to call me a psychopath, so there's that.

You never mind that ex, son, we've all got those who are all 'poor me, pity me, wah wah wah, daddy didn't love me enough and you're just like him' . . . you keep your chin up and don't worry about it! You're as good as any of us, sparky! And I stand corrected on your pronunciation technique.
