This is a minor to medium irk for me on YouTube, that people who read the scripts either don’t rehearse beforehand or don’t confirm any pronunciation they’re not sure about. As a result, words like ‘swathe’ and ‘biopic’ always get pronounced wrong, and ‘posthumous’ gets completely mangled. No, it is not post-hoomus you complete tool. The WhatCulture guys can barely get through a video without pronouncing at least one thing completely wrong.

Can we add to this any Irish name? Niamh = Neve. You’re having a laugh mate, it’s only got one letter in common.
