POLL: How to pronounce Genealogy?

[Lemontree]

I always say family history as I am not researching medical history of my family in any way at the present.

I would say ology, in the same way as oncology

I see people are still have their preferred way of pronouncing "genealogy"

I pronounce it as in allergy.  I believe that the difference in the two pronunciations could possibly stem from the way that American and Canadian people pronounce it.

When did we stop spelling it  genaealogy ? That's how I still spell it so jean e alogy. Changing the spelling is possibly the cause of confusion.

that's how we in South Africa say it too.  There is no "o" before the "logy"

You've obviously never seen the BT advertisement made by Maureen Lipman in the 1980's (just ask Mr G Only 'cause I don't know how to produce a link) - about obtaining an "-ology"    Perhaps someone has already made the connection?

For the record I would say "geneAlogy"

My vote is -Alogy.

I live in Worcester, UK.  I have an English dictionary - alogy is given as the correct English pronunciation.

(But of course, there's the problem - so many people pronounce pronunciation as pronounciation!)

Always "Alogy" I even managed to get BBC Local Radio to pronounce it correctly. It was quite funny listening to the presenter correcting himself when he slipped up.

I voted for the "Alogy" but why should people bother pronouncing something the way it's spelt? There are certain parts of the world where they can't pronounce words like "Aluminium" or "Nuclear" .... and they also have difficulty looking in the "Mirror"!
