Brit. /ˌprʌɪməʊˈprɪmᵻtɪv/, U.S. /ˌpraɪmoʊˈprɪmədɪv/

Compare slightly earlier primo-prime adj.Compare the following occurrence of post-classical Latin primo-primitivus in an English context (this is, however, not attested in Gratian (12th cent.), who uses ecclesia primitiva):1660 E. Stillingfleet Irenicum i. vi. 122 That spirit of mutual condiscention, which was most certainly in Ecclesiâ primo-primitivâ, as Gratian somwhere speaks, in the first and truly primitive Church.
Now rare.
