<br>
<br>I don't know whether these things happen suddenly or whether they build
<br>gradually until they reach a critical mass where I notice them. But when
<br>did "pundit" become "pundent"?
<br>
<br>The word has been tossed out a bit more than usual lately on television
<br>news shows, and in virtually every iteration it has been pronounced with
<br>that extra N slipped in.
