the pronunciation of "reputable" should have the emphasis on the second syllable - mogs_me - 02-12-2025

i just got bullied for pronouncing it this way

it's weird, google spells out the phoenetic pronunciation like this:
REH-pyoo-tuh-bl
(i want it to be reh-PYOO-tuh-bl)

but the pronunciation audibly sounds more like the "correct" way, which to me sounds like REP-yoo-tuh-bl

idk, fuck this shit, hard to explain
but "reputation" sounds way more like my pronunciation which just feels way more right
