yarb commented on the word appendice
The singular of appendices, according to everyone else in my department.
Pronounced in four syllables, e.g. "perhaps we should put that data in an əˈpɛndɪˌsi..."

yarb commented on the word appendice
I trace the malaise to someone who joined about a year ago. I suspect my boss harboured a guilty uncertainty, and when he heard the new girl bandying this solecism, fastened upon it like a will o' the wisp. Then everyone else started parroting him, and now I'm out in the cold with my appendix, contemplating a career move.

No! Seriously, yarb? You have my deepest sympathy. And if you want the editors on Wordie to storm your office in protest, just say the word....

Perhaps every time someone mispronounces it, you could say "-dix." Thus:
Bill: "Perhaps we should put that data in an appendice."
Yarb: "-dix."
That'll get their attention.

Brilliant suggestion, c_b! Maybe if it keeps on happening you could mutter, "dick… s," and then when challenged, explain (if you still have your job).

Don't get me wrong. I share the horror about the appendice-itis. But I was more intrigued by the phrase:
when he heard the new girl bandying this solecism, (he) fastened upon it like a will o' the wisp
I guess I had never thought of will o' the wisps in terms of their glomming abilities. Quite the contrary, in fact.

yarb commented on the word appendice
When thorough noisome fenland at close of day a-roaming,
Beware and shun yon will o' the wisp, a-glomming in the gloaming.

sionnach commented on the word appendice
Is it will o' the wisps, or wills o' the wisp? And with that question, de profundis, I bid ye all good night, my Wordie friends.
