#328 The Fascinating Origins of 8 English Words


Listen Later

This is an episode I've been planning for a long time and I'm quite excited to share. We'll be looking at the origins of 8 different English words and the deep stories behind them. 

Each word originally comes from another language or culture, and it was brought into English through fascinating stories that we'll explore in this episode. These are just a few examples of the countless words that have been adopted into English in a similar way.

For each word, I'll ask a question to the audience to answer too, which gives you a chance to practice and hear my own views.
