WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

QUESTION: For a long while
my wife and ! have been argu-
! ing about the correct way to
pronounce the word "prece-
dence." The dictionary gives as
first choice preh-SEE-denss
However. I contend that the
word is more popularity pro-
nounced PRESS-ih-denss. In
fact. I hardly ever hear it other
wise. Which is the most correct
way to pronounce the word to-
day? A. H. Harris, Calf.
ANSWER: The issue here is
really so trivial that discus
sion" is indicated, not "argu-
ment." Also. there is no such
thing as most correct" choice
between two alternatives. One
alternative may be more COR
rect" than the other, but not
most" The superlative most
may be used only where there
are three or more alternatives,
Some purists argue that "cor-
rect" is a word whose meaning
is absolute-that a thing may be
correct or incorrect but never
more" or most" correct.
don't accept this argument and
here we have an excellent rea-
son why, for both of the pro-
nunciations used by Mr.. Harris
and his wife are entirely Cor
rect"
Most dictionaries enter both.
with preh-SEE-denss usually
listed first. But the fact that
the two pronunciations are given
with only a comma separating
them means that dictionary
editors realize that the two pro-
nunciations are heard with just
about the same frequency. If
either one we're preferred, 1t
would be placed first and the
word "also."
II dictionary editors come to
agree with Mr.. Harris that the
word is more popularity pro-
nounced PRE- S S. III denss"
among literate people. the pro-
nunciation entries will be
changed to read something like
this "(PRESS-ih -denss. Also
preh- SEE-denss)."

denss" to avoid confusion with
"precedents." find 1t avoids
confusion to reserve PRESS-ih-
denss for the pronunciation Of

OF course trumps had to be
pulled some time, but she de-
cided it was too early to do that.
Figuring the bidding and the
distribution of her own hand, it
was rather unlikely that the two
minor suits would break evenly.
However. if one opponent had
all five of the outstanding dia-
mondS it was unlikely that the
hand could be made anyway. So
at trick two Miss Brash laid
down the ace of diamonds. She
was not too pleased when Mrs.
Keen played the queen.
She now led to dummy's ace of
clubs, cashed the king of spades
and got rid of one of her losing
hearts. Next she led dummy's
last diamond.
If Mrs. Keen had ruffed in
here she could have cashed a
heart trick, but Miss Brash could
then have won any lead, picked
up the remaining tr'umps and
spread her hand.
Instead of ruffing the second
diamond Mrs. Keen discarded a
spade. Miss Brash won with the
king of diamonds. led a small
diamond and ruffed in dummy
with the nine of clubs. She then
led dummy's last club. picked up
Mrs. Keen's trumps and claimed
the balance.
If she had led as many as two
rounds of trumps at the Begin
ming of the hand she would have
gone set.
In other words. after ruffing
q third lead of diamonds, she
could not have re-entered her
hand except by ruffing a spade
or heart, and in doing that she
would have reduced her trumps
to one less than the trumps held
by Mrs. Keen. She timed the
hand to take care of a Al trump
break.
