Ny Word for 1t
By FRANK COLBY
Words to Watch.

Now that the football season ts
half over, timely word for TINS
modest column is the verb penal
ize. A reader asks: Since the die
tionary pronunciation Is PEE-nl-
ize, why do most football announe-
ers say 'PEN-ul-iZe'?"
The pronunciation 'PEN-ul-ize"
is the result of false association.
Let me put it in palmer words by
pointing out that penalize derives
from penal, which is always pro-
nodnced: PEE-n1. However, penal
is a word which occurs very seldom
in ordinary speech. The word PEN
atty, on the other hand, Is both IA
miliar and widely used. The average
person, then, thinks of penalize as
a derivative of penalty: hence, the
short "e' in the first syllable.
According to dictionary consen-
sus, the correct pronunciation is:
PEE-nl-ize. But there are straws in
the wind which suggest that PEN
ul-ize" will be accepted as good
usage: it already appears as second
choice in the Thorndike Century.
and in Kenyon and Knott's Pro-
nouncing Dictionary. Personally, I
prefer and recommend: PEE-nl-ize.
The word bayou is louisiana
French corruption of the Choctaw
bayuk, small river"
All dictionaries pronounce 1t: BY
90. 1t is my observation. however.
that the pronunciation which
strongly prevails in the bayou States
among people of non-French descent
is: BY-yoe. the second syllable
rhyming with foe, hoe" Since ths
word is a Southern localism. it has
always seemed illogical to me that
the dictionaries most of which are
published in the East have so far
failed to sanction the customary
Southern pronunciation.
