Episode 12: Embarrassing Zero




Lexitecture show

Summary: In this episode, Amy traces from Arabic to Latin to nothing with "zero" while Ryan gets tied in knots over "embarrass". Lexitecture is a podcast about words. In each episode, a Canadian (Ryan) and a Scot (Amy) each present their current favourite word and talk about its origins, current use, and try to puzzle out how it may have gone from A to B. If you love thinking and talking about words, word origins, or language trivia, this may be the show for you!
