SUMMARY:The Joy of Lex with the Co-Host of “A Way with Words”
DESCRIPTION:Revel in surprising word histories\, regional dialects\, ancient linguistic roots\, and modern slang with Martha Barnette\, co-host of public radio’s popular “A Way with Words.” Barnette\, a writer in love with so-called dead languages\, co-hosts the radio show which The New Yorker called “Car Talk for Lexiphiles” with Grant Barrett\, a linguist and lexicographer. \nMartha Barnette is co-host of the public-radio show A Way with Words\, heard each week by listeners on National Public Radio affiliates across North America\, and worldwide by podcast. The show’s about words and how we use them — word and phrase origins\, slang\, regional dialects\, writing well\, books and reading\, and that weird thing Grandma used to say. \nRegister to attend this event \nYou can also watch the live stream here at 7:00 pm on Wednesday\, October 5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ou7Xu2drEk.  \nSponsored by Vermont Humanities and the Friends of Brooks Memorial Library
