So if you say fire with a p sound, what you're actually saying is pyre which is a very different vibe.
Pier, peer, beer, mere, veer, queer, tier, dear, seer all rhyme
Pear, bear, mare, hare, bare, square, pare all rhyme
Tear is pronounced tee-er when talking about the eye liquid and t-air when talking about the action of ripping something
is pear not read the same as peer?
