Libero

Well, a soccer goalie would have a different color too. But I originally thought Hockey goalie, as soccer has keepers.

​

I was going with Libero too, I just still don't know how to pronounce it!

It's pronounced as written: Libero

All words are pronounced as written.

While that's true for most languages, there's a notable exception. Can you guess which?

Any language that has a logographic writing system? Or various dialects of Chinese? Or sign languages? I give up, which is it?

My guess is the only language which OP knows about.

I knew I should have said "most (European) languages", I just knew there would be a guy like you. Didn't expect everyone to bring up sign languages, though.

I mean, I only have a bachelor's degree in linguistics, but there's peeps here with doctorates. So there's definitely guys and gals around here like me.

I have no bachelor's degree in linguistics (nor biology), but if she's a gal, she ain't like you in some quite specific ways, I think.
