I guess you forgot British English exists 😆 I had to have the joke explained to me as that’s the English I was taught and had never heard the pronunciation that way before.

Oh right, that E) Yeah, I wasn’t even considering British English, went straight to the weird ones in my mind.

Haha, the brain works in the weirdest ways sometimes! (Though British English is a bit weird tbh)

Can you share said explanation with the rest of the dullards such as myself?

Pronounce “lever” to rhyme with “weather” - the punchline will then make sense (I don’t want to write it here in case I spoil it for someone 😀)
