In non-rhotic (British) pronunciation, drivers and survivors rhyme with divers: /aɪvəz/ after the stressed syllable. Rivers and shivers look similar (they also end in -ivers), but their stressed vowel is /ɪ/, so they sound different. Diverse and diverts look similar at the start, but end in /s/ and /ts/ and have a different vowel; they do not rhyme with divers. In General American, add an /r/ in these words (e.g., /ˈdraɪvərz/), but the rhyming relationships stay the same.
