Another fun episode of #WordsUnravelled with @robwords.bsky.social and @jesszafarris.bsky.social.

Is like to add one thing, in the Kamilaroi/Gamilaraay language of NW New South Wales, the word for Budgerigar is Gidjirrigaa which when said out loud aren't too dissimilar to each other.

Now then!

Just caught up with #WordsUnravelled about #Games, saying Whist is named for silence.

Have you come across the song "The Lambton Worm"? About a famous dragon from #Sunderland. The first word in the chorus is "Whist"...

@robwords.bsky.social @jesszafarris.bsky.social #wordsunravelled re: modern items with differing nomenclature on either side of the pond … there’s Mobile v Cell Phone…not exactly post-information age, but on the cusp perhaps? Also nuff respect to Jess for giving “Babylon” and “ganja” shoutouts !

Don't fret, I can recommend @jesszafarris.bsky.social who is criminally underfollowed.
