Thread Name: Folklore: Dictionary of American Regional English
Subject: RE: Folklore: Dictionary of American Regional English
Today on the Diane Rehm show they're re-broadcasting the show about The Dictionary Of American Regional English from March (guests: Joan Houseton Hall, chief editor, Dictionary of American Regional English, and Ben Zimmer, the language columnist for The Boston Globe and former On Language columnist for The New York Times. He is also the executive producer of the Visual Thesaurus and Vocabulary.com). There's a link to the full transcript, but it's fun listening, of course.
