Episode 30: elide, portmanteau, gasconade, and more!
About this episode
Matt and Mom go a bit meta in today's episode. Almost every featured word is a word about words.
You'll discover what a diphthong is (and how to pronounce it), the difference between an aphorism and a bromide, the word to use when you want to omit a word, and more.
Enjoy!
