Weekend Edition: Proper Pronunciation of "Coupon"

The Supreme Aglet will continue to combine the Saturday and Sunday editions of The Supreme Aglet into a single weekend edition with a weekend-filling thought to ponder.

The thought for this week:

Please consider the proper pronunciation for the word "Coupon".

I hear it pronounced two different ways:

• "koo'-pon": This is the correct pronunciation, for I have deemed it so.


• "kyoo'-pon": This pronunciation annoys me. Do not use it. I have deemed it so.

Don't let me catch you passing a "kyoo'pon" during our next happenstance encounter at the grocery store, and the world of the Supreme Aglet is once again in perfect balance.
