We research and discuss a huge variety of topics, from rhyming slang to Proto-Indo-European roots.
We look at reference works, old words, new words, the reform of spelling, the jargon of the film industry and banking, building and gardening. We have devilish quizzes on odd themes like magpie words, eponyms and collective nouns. And when we run out of existing phrases, we invent our own.
In short we enjoy every aspect we can imagine of this quirky language of ours.
