Have you ever wondered why October is the tenth month when its name means “eight,” how a sandwich got its name, or what a jeep, a tulip, and a slogan have in common? The Secret Lives of Words takes you on an entertaining journey through the surprising origins of English vocabulary. Discover how words are borrowed from other languages, created from names and places, shortened, blended, reshaped, and sometimes completely transformed in meaning. Behind many ordinary words lie extraordinary stories—and after this lecture, you may never look at the English language in quite the same way again.
