In this episode, Amy is all by her lonesome, answering listeners' burning etymological questions, including the relationship between "tradition" and "treason"; "thanks"; "plumber"; the homonyms "lead" and "lead"; "poison"; and "hearse" vs "rehearse".
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 just random bits of head-scratching language trivia, this may be the show for you!
