I read from decide to decimal.

In America, a "decillion" is a 1 with 33 zeroes behind it but in other areas, it's a 1 with 60 zeroes behind it! Wha?!?!

It turns out they use words with the suffix "-ard" between each of our "-ions" so our "Billion" is their "Milliard", then they have "Billion" (our "Trillion"), then "Billiard" (our "Quadrillion"), then "Trillion" (our "Quintillion"), etc. 

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/decillion

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_large_numbers

The word of the episode is "decidua".

When I read the definition I didn't make the connection that it's in both pregnancy and menstruation. Which really does make sense.

I read from decentralisation to decibel.

Bye bye Cerebrum:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decerebration

I figured out this “decimeter” thing. A decimeter is 1/10 of a meter, a centimeter is 1/100 of a meter, and a millimeter is 1/1000 of a meter. My brain was multiplying them by ten (millimeter to centimeter to decimeter) but that wasn’t the right way to think about it. OK, I feel better now  

The word of the episode is "decibel".

How loud is something? Maybe this will help:

I read from decanter to decathlon.

"A Complicated Song" by "Weird Al" Yankovic:

https://youtu.be/iOGXmmLSSdE

When I first saw the title to this song I was really hoping it would be some crazy thing with complicated lyrics and music. It's not. 

But I'm not disappointed with the song! 

An "are" is 100 square meters (about 1,076 square feet) which is 10m x 10m (about 31 ft x 31 ft).

A "hectare" is 100 times bigger:

The word of the episode is "decapod".

I read from debt to decadent.

In the episode I said the phrase "latin societies" and I genuinely don't know if that's the proper term so my sincere apologies if that is incorrect. My brain was so flustered about not being able to think of "quinceañera" that I didn't even realized I had said it. 

The word of the episode is "decadent".
