It is usually the sole purpose of my visit.

8) What pronunciation/variant of an English word in a country other than your own annoys you the most? (e.g/ Tuesday = Toos-day/Chews-day math/maths...)

Math. Mathematics consists of a number of disciplines and is therefore plural.
The plural should still exist in the abbreviated form, maths.

7) What noun should never be verberized?

There ain't no noun that can't be verbed.

Unfortunately.
