Ben Schott (of the Miscellany) has a new word blog
If anyone can clarify the pronunciation of "Schott" for me—whether like "skot" or "shot"—I'll be very grateful.
Not like I know the guy, but if it comes directly from German then it's "shot". Of course, there's always the chance that it mutated over time or that there's a specific regional pronunciation. So basically I can't help you at all. :)
pretty sure it's not "skot". i'd just assume "shot"...
I heard him on the radio when the first book came out: he uses 'shot.'
Oh, good. I was in order all along, then.
P.S. Where did all you people come from suddenly??
re where do we come from, every so often one wonders how The Author is doing, esp. on weekends when one has time to think of anything at all
