By Theodore M. Bernstein Where have the commas gone? Commas are cute little creatures, but sometimes they can wreak havoc by being misplaced or omitted. Dr. S. Mouchly Small of Buf falo, N.Y., sends along a clipping of a news paper article that demonstrates the point. One sentence read: "Iran said the Unit ed States still owes it $365 million for debts incurred during World War II." It seems to make sense: The United States owes Iran a lot of money. The only trouble is that commas should have been placed after "Iran" and after "the United States. The United States was saying that Iran owed it that money. The error amounted to $730 million. If the sentence hadn't been written so clumsily, the error would have been avoided. Word oddities. Far back an item in this column contained an opinion that the most musical words in the English language were "cellar door." That stirred something in the memory of Joseph L. Velten, an English teacher in Warminster, Pa., and he went on a hunt for a clipping of a newspaper column publi shed some 10 years earlier. He found it and has sent it this way. "Some 30 years ago lexicographer Wil fred J. Funk drew up this list: dawn, hush, lullaby, murmuring, tranquil, mist, lumin ous, chimes, golden and melody. "He was deluged with complaints. Dorothy Parker found "hush" an ugly word and both she and Hendrik Willem Van Loom shared agreement on, of all words, cellar door as the most beautiful in the language. 1975 Thodar M.
