(B) I was using autodidact for self-taught, to refer to myself going to the library to look up how to pronounce dilettante rather than happening to be taught how at school. Pulling the info, not having it pushed to me. I don't know if that is a correct usage - I'd have to look it up ;-)

BTW, I found I had been pronouncing dilettante incorrectly for years. I've not had a moment like that since misled - which, misleadingly, is not pronounced "my-zuld".
