In The Boy In the Striped Pajamas why do they use Out-With?
In the boy in the stripped pajamas, Bruno cannot pronounce the word Auschwitz (the largest German concentration camp) so calls it Out-With ____ It looks as if the author has confused pronunciation with spelling. For native speakers of English Auschwitz may be a shade hard to spell, but it isn't hard to pronounce. The book was written in 4 days and is poorly researched and not very well thought out. ________ ******* The author purposely uses Out-With. During an interview he said, "...I decided not to use the word 'Auschwitz' once within the book itself. By removing the word, even though we are clearly there, and all the signs are there, by not specifically basing it there, it broadened it."
