#D166 (directorial to dirigible)
from The Dictionary
I read from directorial to dirigible. The word "dirge", in our current usage, basically just comes from the first word of a psalm that I think was said/sung at funerals. https://www.etymonline.com/word/dirge#etymonline_v_8616 The audio is from possibly the most famous dirge/funeral song which is Chopin's "Funeral March". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D05AB8xs7qA The word of the episode is "director's cut". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Director%27s_cut Theme music from Tom Maslowski https://zestysol.com/ Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter B" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter C" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter D" on YouTube Featured in a Top 10 Dictionary Podcasts list! https://blog.feedspot.com/dictionary_podcasts/ Backwards Talking on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmIujMwEDbgZUexyR90jaTEEVmAYcCzuq [email protected] https://www.facebook.com/thedictionarypod/ https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757
