This week we’re having a rummage through the postbag and dedicating the whole episode to questions that you, the marvellous Purple People, send in each out.
We help people find out where all the different meanings of ‘mandarin’ came from, ponder whether there’s a word for the twilight of the morning, and we get to the bottom of a rather tricksy wordy riddle.
Also up for discussion are cauliflowers, rumours, ducks, and meadows.
If you have a question that you’d like us to look into then please email [email protected]
A Somethin’ Else production.
