#D259 (doze to dracaena)

I read from doze to dracaena.     The game "The Dozens" is basically a Roast Battle (or some other term I can't think of right now). And the etymology is unclear. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dozens_(game)     The word "drab", in terms of a prostitute, is probably from the Gaelic "drabag". https://www.etymonline.com/word/drab     The word of the episode is "doze".     Theme music from Jonah Kraut https://jonahkraut.bandcamp.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
