Title: permissive
Review: Perhaps I am a bit old-fashioned in my lingual tastes, but I find this new edition way too permissive. As as example of this permissiveness, I cite its pronunciation of the word forte, a person strong point. Traditionally, the word is pronounced as the word meaning a military stronghold, fort, would be. But, for some reason, some haughty idiots pronounce the word as fort-AY. This pronunciation applies to an entirely different word meaning a musical direction. To confirm the fallacy of these dolts, I consulted with this dictionary, only to find that you could pronounce it EITHER way. Oh, how William Strunk and Noah Webster must be rolling in their graves
