| 1641125046239346694 | This hour is all about mondegreens, malapropisms, and more, with @eabrewster, @MtwoBtwo, and @bgzimmer. We’ll celebrate the joy of playing with language. Listen now on @wnpr, or find the show wherever you get your podcasts: https://t.co/0RZ0C4Rs1H | 2 |
| 1639332975782264844 | 'Bankrupt' as a term for financial failure dates back to the money-changers' benches of medieval Florence, writes @bgzimmer. https://t.co/qsN6da9y7U via @WSJ | 2 |
| 1640329901176651778 | "Bankrupt" was the word on the street for @WSJ with roots in Italian for breaking the bench. I'm most proud of the waving arms @bgzimmer https://t.co/bw4P21OfmP https://t.co/R37L0utD5R | 1 |
| 1640634526773772289 | @bgzimmer You may recall my shameless promotion of @gdoslang. Might I draw your attention to another bit of Slangerie: @LeagueOfLexicon. I am responsible for the slang extension box to this and if by chance you could take a look, I would naturally be grateful. | 1 |

| 1639838290307317761 | @bgzimmer @cammcwhirter @WSJ Very cool, thank you! The Spanish is almost like the Italian: past participle of romper is roto, adjectivally roto/a. Bancarrota. | 0 |

| 1640771890716221442 | @fvigeland I love an academic article that cites both Thomas Kuhn and @bgzimmer (I also love that it's #openaccess) | 2 |
| 1640883798635167746 | @fvigeland @ElenaHershey @bgzimmer This should be the Open Access link https://t.co/PaIagfnzoS. If not, less aesthetically appealing but still functional preprint here: https://t.co/F53nc8NOzw | 2 |
