Subject: RE: BS: Mountweazels anyone? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 31 Oct 20 - 10:35 AM There's a radio program here in the US called A Way With Words that consults lots of dictionaries and scholarly sources for word origins and they've discussed those more than once. It's quite an interesting topic when they get started on it. |
