Пока (наречие)

We use “превью", not “превье". For example, we have “ревю” for review, “ньюз” for news etc.
Don responds: Agreed. The original source where I found the sentence had превье instead of превью, so I had kept the original spelling. In retrospect that wasn’t a good judgment call, so I’ll fix it up to the correct spelling.
