If you love dictionaries, you'll love this week's Grammar Girl podcast with @emckean, founder of the Wordnik dictionary.

In this clip, I talk about adopting the word "podcast," and she talks about a man who adopted "beautiful" as a gift to his wife.

Check out the full interview to learn how one delightful person can run a whole dictionary!

@grammargirl one of my favourite episodes.
@emckean has a delightful and refreshing take on our approach to language.
