#E13 (Ebola to ecchymosis)

from The Dictionary

I read from Ebola to ecchymosis. "ebonics" is the older term for what is now known as "African-American Vernacular English" or AAVE. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_Vernacular_English I guess "ebony and ivory" and Ebony Magazine are the two main uses of "ebony" I can think of in pop culture. Ebony, the wood, is quite cool. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebony The eccentric wheel is used in mechanical engineering. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eccentric_(mechanism) The word of the episode is "eccentric". I think I need more eccentricity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eccentricity_(behavior) But eccentricity in math looks like it's more than I want to think about. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eccentricity_(mathematics) 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://www.threads.net/@dictionarypod https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757
