ARTICLE ANNOUNCEMENT: “Semiotic whitening: whiteness without white people”, By: Mike Mena. NEW in Journal of Linguistic Anthropology!
Check me out on television talking about not capitalizing or punctuating formally in text fox32chicago.com/video/1436040
#GoodFriday... 'Calvary' is the 10C English version of 14C Latin 'Calvariae' - (place of )the skull, equivalent of the Greek version 'Γολγοθᾶ'/'Golgothâ' of the Aramaic name for the site of #crucifixion: 'גּוּלְגּוּלְתָּא/gulgultā'
I'll be on Red River Radio out of Shreveport, Louisiana, helping to fundraise for that great community radio station tomorrow, Saturday, March 9, at 9 a.m. Central Time. redriverradio.org/contact-us Support your local public radio!
I had a lovely chat about dictionaries and new words on YES FM this morning. yeshome.com/positive-chats…
New episode with @GrantBarrett of A Way With Words @wayword ! We're talking about all the words in the @americandialect Society Word of the Year vote. And what's going on in the inner workings of Dictionary . com Wherever you get your podcasts. becauselanguage.com/90-enpoopifica…

For seasonal cold sufferers, from 1875. archive.org/details/health… DIAGNOSIS OF A COLD. (According to the theory of Dr. O. W. Holmes.) I Moan, Sigh, Groan, I sneeze — I wheeze Cold chills Like rills Creep o'er. Red nose Redder grows, When it blows — And how sore! (click for more)
@GrantBarrett is referred to as an "amanuensis" in this article. Hey Grant, have you ever been an amanuensis before? 😂 Grant is joining us on our first episode of the new season. Coming soon! nytimes.com/2024/01/15/cro…
I was flattered to be asked by Michael Rosen's "Word of Mouth" BBC radio show/podcast to talk about dictionaries and the dictionary business. Take a listen: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
Seeing if ChatGPT 4/Dall•E 3 can interpret blazons to render coats of arms. The less ornate one is from Wikipedia, as is the blazon (the coat of arms description), which represents Winston Churchill's coat of arms. The second, more ornate one is AI-generated.
As the nonprofit radio show I co-host approaches the end of the year, we're having a financial crunch to raise $75K before January 1. If you can help, I will be forever grateful. waywordradio.org/donate
I had a fun conversation about words of the year with Dionne Codrington of CBC: cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…
Hey! That's me introducing "cromulent" as the word of the day! dictionary.com/e/word-of-the-…
Our #WordOfTheYear “hallucinate” represents 2023 as the year that AI became widely used and its problems widely known. Here’s Dictionary.com Head of Lexicography @GrantBarrett to explain its significance for language and everyday life.

[comme on dit chez nous] : les dénominations des "selles liquides" et du "mucus nasal" Les explications sur l'origine de chacun des mots figurent dans le livre dont la couverture est en médaillon (c'est depuis hier dans toutes les bonnes librairies, éditions @LeRobert_com) 👇
The meaning of "coruscating" has changed from meaning "shining" or "sparkling" (literally or figuratively), to include a meaning of "scathing" or even "excoriating." I talked with Elisabeth Ribbans of The Guardian & Observer about it. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
