REALTOR |
For some reason, this word is often mispronounced as “real-a-ter"
instead of the proper “ree-ul-ter.” Incidentally, realtors insist that
this is a term originally trademarked by the National Association of
Real Estate Boards (now renamed the “National Association of Realtors” ),
that it must be capitalized, and that all non-members of that
association are mere “real estate associates.” Common usage, however,
calls both “real estate agents,” despite their protests.
