Pronunciation & Spelling
All of the above rhyme with 'premiere' in its British pronunciation /prɪˈmɪə/: they end in the same /ɪə/ sound. Watch out for the lookalike 'premier' (prime minister; first), which is spelled like 'premiere' without the final 'e' but is usually pronounced with stress on the first syllable, so it does not rhyme.
