I pronounced hyperbole as hyper-bowl until my mid 40’s when I finally heard it used in a movie, and had to ask everyone around me if that’s how hyperbole is pronounced. I knew the word genre, but didn’t know that when I read “genre”, it was the same word. I said gen-ree when using genre in a statement well into my late 20’s.
