A call to a deity or other higher power is sometimes interposed after  and before the subjunctive clause, as in Would to God that ; see the citations page for examples.

Usage notes

 * The current pronunciation of the first vowel of the singular began to appear in western England in the 13th century under the rounding influence of the w, though the older pronunciation with (→ modern ) remained in use into the 15th century. Although the vowel of the plural was sometimes also altered to  (→ modern )  beginning in the 14th century, the pronunciation with  ultimately won out there, possibly under the influence of pairs like foot-feet. However, many speakers (especially of  or ) have either retained or reinnovated the pronunciation of the plural with . The modern spelling women for the plural is due to influence of the singular; it is attested from the 15th century.

 * For a time in the 16th and 17th centuries, the pronunciation of the singular sometimes drifted even further back towards or  (→ modern ) and the plural sometimes drifted even further forward towards, leading to comparisons of the words to "woe man" or "we men".)

 * As a term of address, the word is often considered patronizing and at least somewhat offensive; compare the usage of woman as a verb.

 * American grammarians and style guides often proscribe/reject the usage of woman as an attributive (a noun used to describe other nouns, as in "a woman leader", a usage which is sometimes mistaken for an adjective).   It has been said to be particularly common in Nigeria and India.
