<p class="MsoNormal">One of my favorite words is lox,” says Gregory Guy, a professor of
<br>
linguistics at New York University. There is hardly a more <br>
quintessential New York food than a lox bagel—a century-old popular <br>
appetizing store, Russ & Daughters, calls it “The Classic.” But Guy, who <br>
has lived in the city for the past 17 years, is passionate about lox for <br>
a different reason. “The pronunciation in the Proto-Indo-European was <br>
probably ‘lox,’ and that’s exactly how it is pronounced in modern <br>
English,” he says. “Then, it meant salmon, and now it specifically means <br>
‘smoked salmon.’ It’s really cool that that word hasn’t changed its <br>
pronunciation at all in 8,000 years and still refers to a particular fish.”<br>
