Das war auch meine Reaktion. Eigentlich hätte ich "bestimmter

"certain words". Der Autor nennt keine Beispiele. Ich habe dann
angenommen, daß Wörter wie

schisme
schiste

gemeint sein müssen.

/'SEd-jul/ (/'SEdZ-ul/, /'SE-dZul/) die Standardaussprache in
GB geworden ist. Zur gleichen Zeit hat in den USA die Praxis
Websters dazu geführt, daß die Aussprache mit /sk/ ('skEdZ-ul,
'skEdZ-@l) (nach dem Muster /school/, /scheme/, usw.)
angenommen wurde.

Na ja, "etc." ist kürzer als "scholar" oder "schooner".

Im "Oxford Dictionary of Etymology" gibt's kein "etc.", sondern
einfach

Im OED steht folgendes:

| In the 16th c., both in Fr. and Eng., the spellings /scedule/
| and /schedule/, imitating the contemporary forms of the Latin
| word, were used by a few writers. In Fr. this fashion was
| transient, but in Eng. /schedule/ has been the regular spelling
| from the middle of the 17th c. The original pronunciation
| ('sEdju:l) continued in use long after the change in spelling;
| it is given in 1791 by Walker without alternative; in his second
| ed. (1797) he says that is is 'too firmly fixed by custom to be
| altered', though on theoretical grounds he would prefer either
| ('skEdju:l), favored by Kenrick, Perry, and Buchanan, or - 'if
| we follow the French' - ('SEdju:l). The latter he does not seem
| to have known either in actual use or as recommended by any
| orthoepist. Smart, however, in 1836 gives ('SEdju:l) in the body
| of his Dictionary without alternative, although in his
| introduction he says that as the word is of Gr. origin the
| normal pronunciation would be with (sk). Several later Dicts.
| recognize ('sEdju:l) as permissible, but it is doubtful whether
| this was really justified by usage. In England the universal
| pronunciation at present seems to be with (S); in the U.S., the
| authority of Webster has secured general currency for (sk).
