CWFC 014 – A Very Grammar Girl Christmas
Just in time for back to school, legendary educational podcaster Mignon Fogarty joins us for a discussion of Christmas Grammar. Topics include the language of Christmas carols, properly formatting your Christmas cards and letters, and even the true meaning of “Xmas.” Also, you’ll learn how you can buy a piece of Christmas history and how to make some fun Christmas cookies. Finally, we’ve got a bonus entry in this month’s round of the Jingle Brawl!
