Usage notes
Being a word borrowed from English derived from Greek, the y in symbol is pronounced /ɨ̞, ɪ/ rather than expected /ə/. To preserve consistency between pronunciation and spelling, some prefer to spell this word. Nevertheless, symbol is the more common spelling of the two. See /, /, / for similar examples.
