Does it make sense 'What is your most pet peeve?' ? If it does, could you explain why you put with peeve? Cuz I know that peeve is something that is pissing you off but pet is like an animal that you have. Pet and peeve is not related and why do you use it together

Domanda in primo piano
- Inglese (Stati Uniti)
A pet peeve is something that bothers you personally yet may not bother others. The use of the word 'pet' tends to imply ownership of the 'peeve' by an individual.
An example might be "Almost everyone dislikes littering but my biggest pet peeve is when people spit their chewing gum out on the sidewalk - especially when I step on it."

'What is your most pet peeve?' is a little unnatural. Try 'What pet peeve do you dislike the most?'

I would just say "What is your biggest pet peeve?"
Pet peeves are things or actions in which someone may find annoying. It has nothing to do with pets.
