Maggie and Emily learn the Hawaiian words <i>pono </i>and <i>ha’aha’a </i>from native speaker Luana Kawaa. They coin the word "pommies" with Vern M and put a usage of "cringe" on trial with Judge Matt Aitken. Poem by Emily: Getting Low.

Ep. 10 Ancient Greek Anchors: Eunomia and Eudomonia

A linguistic expedition into brave new words. Maggie Rowe and Emily John Garcés hunt for words that lack an English equivalent.
