To avoid this deplorable misnomer was easy; the spelling of the word had only to be altered, and by common consent both pronounced and written “Budhism,” instead of “Buddhism.
Is there a difference in pronunciation between "budhism" and "buddhism"? This line of text from the Introduction seems to suggest there is although I am at a loss to find it. Any suggestions or should I just pronounce the two words the same?

Maybe pronounce "budhism" like "bud" and "hism" and then pronounce "buddhism' the usual way?timoriordan wrote: ↑February 11th, 2024, 4:49 pm To avoid this deplorable misnomer was easy; the spelling of the word had only to be altered, and by common consent both pronounced and written “Budhism,” instead of “Buddhism.

Right. Your suggestion makes sense, though, based on the pronunciation of other Sanskrit words.

I think all of us would be guessing on this somewhat. However, your quote indicates that maybe it was just the spelling that had to be changed, so pronunciation same? The French is 'Boudhisme', which indicates an accepted dipthong in the 'u'. You could accentuate that when reading the version with one 'd'. Up to you now, Tim. Thanks for asking

Hi guys,
Another question: when the number of a footnote appears in the text, eg "...we did our best to correct the mistake.1 To avoid this deplorable misnomer..." should I read "footnote 1" or just pass over the number?
