Lots of the Scots folk here call it 'preemark', I think it's a regional aberration. But I think the pronunciation should be 'prymark' with the pri pronounced as in primary or primate
The spelling is Primark. If it was pronounces Preemark it would have been spelt with an "e"" or rather two "e"
One would not call the term π r² pee are squared would you?
Try these words using pree instead of pry
private
privileged
principle
primary
primates
prime
Definitely prymark. I've only ever heard one person call it preemark and I must admit I cringed so much especially when they were adamant it was the correct way to pronounce it

Thats exactly the opposite to how I feel, Over here in N.I the only time you hear it pronounced Prymark is when you hear some English person talking about it on the radio and you think to yourself WTF?

To be fair, I actually call it sh*t-mark but that's because I am a clothes snob
