A Way with Words - language, linguistics, and callers from all over

What Kids Know and Want to Find Out - 1 September 2017


Listen Later

Our youngest listeners have questions about everything from love to one of their favorite foods. Kids ask why we might end a text with the letters xoxo, what the word "canoodle" means, and how pizza got its name. And it turns out that when it comes to words, sometimes kids know even more than their parents!
