I’m watching Veep and everyone pronounces it “Ne-vaugh-da” (which is how I pronounce it) but Kent insists on correcting everyone with “Ne-VA-duh”.

Who’s correct? Is the show trying to correct a common mis-pronounciation or is Kent just full of shit?

    I always saw Ken as just as out of touch as the rest of the characters, but I think you’re right. Relatively speaking, he is the straight man character. TIL.

      The character who plays the straight man role can swap around, particularly in something as long running as a sitcom. Though I’m not that familiar with this show.
