Take MyWord for 1t
D. r-Ul
Pronunciation Clinic.

@. Will you please put the words
MORE and marquee through your
Pronunciation Clinic? We have
discussed the words in our speech
class.-Mrs. j. E. D.
Here's a thumb mail history of
the word MORE. It began as the
English word mohair, which was
borrowed by the French. Now in
French ''h" is never pronounced
at the beginning or in the inte-
rior Of word. The French, there
fore, pronounced it mwar, as if it
were spelled "moair." Later they
changed the spelling to MORE
which, according to French pho
netics, is pronounced mwar.
The word MORE entered English
and became Cd noun meaning "a
fabric, especially silk, with watered
appearance; co an adjective
meaning having a watered appear
ance."
In French, the noun MORE and
the adjective moire are distinguished
thus: The "e" of the adjective is
marked with a little tick which
slants to the right; it is called ac-
cent aigu (acute accent. When
the final sc" is so marked it is
pronounced "ay" and becomes a
separate syllable. Otherwise the
final, unmarked "e" is silent.
Therefore, in French the noun
MORE Is pronounced: mwar. The
adjective is pronounced: mwar-AY.
The popular American pronuncia-
Is: moe-RAY.
In American printing the French
acute accent mark is seldom used
therefore the noun MORE and the
adjective look exactly alike. In
Standard American, then, the noun
and the adjective are pronounced
the same: moe-RAY.
In modern usage the word mar
quee designates a roof1ike canopy
projecting above doorway. The
English pronunciation is: mahr-
KEE. The word came about through
srror.
In French marquis, pronounced
mar-KEE, Is a nobleman ranking
between a duke and count. (The
English pronunciation is: MAHR-
kwisS.)
In French, the wife of a marquis
Is marquise, pronounced: mar
KEEZ the English term is mar
chioness, pronounced: MAHR -shun-
ess). Centuries ago the French
also used the word marquise fol
q large tent for a marchioness OF
any other woman of rank. In time
the French word marquise came te
mean "a roofiike canopy over the
doorway of a public building Nov
when the word entered English, il
was first spelled marques" But
because the final IS" was thought
erroneously to make marques 9
plural noun, the IS" was dropped
and the canopy became known al
q marquee.
However, to form the plural o1
marquee we restore the "s"-mar.
quees-pronounce it mahr- -KEEz
and thus have the original singu-
lar noun as it entered English, il
both spelling and pronunciation!

VOCATIONAL PROGRAM

VOCATIONAL OGR
AT LAST A Board for Vocational Education has made
its appearance in these Islands. Its membership is comprised
of men and women whose knowledge Of conditions should
help considerably, and its chairman, Mrs. Edith Gereau lack
son, is particularly well qualified. The next few months should
see a shaping up in a manner encouraging to the future of
these Islands.
MATTER which should not be allowed to 20 by with
out words Of congratulations, and with the hope that they be
carried out is the desire Of the Governor that funds for the two
municipalities should be made available on the basisrUf need
rather than on the basis of matching funds appropriated BY
the separate municipalities. In this move may be seen the
dawn Of a day in which the equities of a situation take pre-
cedence over politics, and the real need met where it is most
felt. al
IF THESE Islands are to hold their own and move towards
a greater measure Of economic independence, then the citi-
zens who live here own property and interests, must be fit to
run its factories, operate machinery, and meet the various
technical requirements of this advanced age. Houses must be
built and maintained, experiments carried out, and on the
whole everything of a vocational nature must be faced. 1t is
only natural to say that if we are to remain alive, it can be
done only through proper and effective vocational education.
On the cultural side, there is a fair amount Of attention given,
and our high schools, limited though they are, equip our grad
yates with college entrance and a fairly liberal education.
What is needed is the vocational and the work Of this Biard,
along with the Federal program should supply the need.
GOVERNOR DE CASTRO should be complimented on
his f~ar-sighted view as expressed, and it is hoped that he will
see fit to stand BY his guns. No longer is there the need for
countless differences in minute details that have haunted
these Islands for 50 long a time. If the program is admins
tered, and its effects distributed according to need, the re-
suits and benefits will even out themselves, and this must be
apparent TO the Governor.
WITH AN EFFECTIVE plan, carefully worked out land
there is every reason to believe that a board such as the one
now functioning under the Craftsmanship Of Mrs. Jackson)

there will be no doubt that the
Office Of Education in Wash

The work Of the Board should
be a first big step in a vocation
al program for the Virgin IS
lands which will see the dawn
Of a new day.
