Comment on In the phrase “a long-winded response”, “winded” can be pronounced as in “wind” or as in “wind”, and both make etymological sense.

  I was quite sure when I originally posted.

  Then someone said it’s “wound” and not “winded”, but the dictionary said either is fine.

  Then you asked me if I was sure. And now I’m not so sure. What do you think?
