Re: For fun: pronouncing Apologia
The way customer service pronounces it.
I just think of it like any word containing "olog" in it. The first "o" has the emphasis. Apologetic. Cardiology. Criminology. Aren't they all the same? I have always heard anything with the "olog" said with the emphasis on the first "o." Is there one that isn't? Now I sort of want to look up every "study of" thing there is and see.
Also, why does apology (like to say "I'm sorry") use "olog" - what is an apology studying?
BTW - I've never taken latin, so I know the "root" is probably not "olog" it is just the way I've broken down words in my own mind since I was a kid.
