I've looked it up a bunch of times and I still don't know if potable is "POTE-ah-bull" or "POT-ah-bull"
Potent Potables -- from (SNL's) Celebrity Jeopardy.
The first one, as it comes from the Latin "potare," "to drink." Sure, we could use "drinkable" instead, but too many people would understand how to say it and what it meant.
what about pote-ah-bull
That is what I was going for with my first option, I am just bad at phonics
I say it the first way. I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.
