Emily calls out to Kyle like a songbird this week to introduce him to the amply avian word roup.
Soaring through the word’s Scottish and English uses, Emily shows Kyle the “roups”. From those simple nothing phrases upon which we force alliteration to roup’s somewhat mysterious origins, Kyle discovers just what kind of grave difference the definite article can make.
Emily takes us briefly down memory lane revealing another of roup’s definitions to be synonymous with a word covered early in Butter No Parsnips’ history. And inviting us all to listen as Kyle reveals an alarming knowledge of Storage Wars, Emily introduces us to the relationship between this seemingly unheard of word and the world of auctions.
Join us every week as we explore the fascinating origins and meanings of words, uncovering the hidden stories behind language and how it evolves over time, for language enthusiasts and etymology buffs alike.
