Women, Words, and Wonder (How Women Fit Into The Dictionary)
Manage episode 357913762 series 3453287
Episode 2 | Welcome to Magic in the Madness with your host Andrea Sarmiento. This week we are discussing women's history (as it is Women's History Month) and how women have fit themselves into the dictionary. I reference a book I read last year called The Dictionary of Lost Words by Pip Williams and take a look at some recent findings about the Oxford English Dictionary and the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. I'm very interested in your thoughts after listening to this episode so don't forget to follow me on Instagram @MagicMadnessPodcast and sent me a DM about it! I hope you enjoy and catch new episodes every Tuesday.
