Although herb has always been spelled with an h, pronunciation without it was usual until the 19th century and is still standard in the US.

I do love how Americans pronounce bay-zil - especially being a neuroscience guy so it's a homophone for "basal ganglia" which always gives me a smile.
Anyway I came here for "padiddle" - who even HAS a word for a car with one headlight working, let alone something as loony as that?

not me. I've never run across "padiddle" ever anywhere, in conversation or in print, and I know a lot of words.

I have heard of “padiddle” but not as a word for a car with a headlight out but as something you say when you see one.

scouts, DofE, a my-school-specific program called Adventure Country, etcspent a weekend in the bush every two months or so from sixth grade. at 16 we were just getting dropped in the desert near the NSW/Qld border, with girls from another school and a map, with a rendezvous point to meet adults/vans at five days later. have to wonder if that still goes on in a cell phone era

The regional variant I'm familiar with was 'perdiddle' and the first to spot and call one out gave the other a sock in the arm. Thanks for dredging up high school memories I'd thought were well and truly suppressed.

When we see a Wallflowers car, we hit each other in the upper arm and yell "COCK-EYE".
― pplains, Wednesday, 2 October 2019 12:16 (four years ago) link
Padiddle may be regional? In any case it is decently widespread but there are some families & communities that simply don't have that tradition and it just missed them in its distribution. I am not familiar with the variant where you get to punch someone, but I have heard of "punch buggy" where you punch someone's arm if you spot a VW Beetle. I think you have to say the color: "punch buggy blue!" To indicate that you actually did see a specific car.
I think I was a teenager before I heard of either of these. They all sound pretty stupid to me - even pointlessly cruel. But apparently in some circles it's a beloved type of juvenile fun, like yelling "shotgun" or "dibs" or "bags I..."

Fog lights do not count as a padiddle even if used as primary lights. There is no such thing as a double padiddle.See also: Punch buggy
