Thank you so much folks for giving us a little time with the word hi at all we go 1st to Carol and well many years ago we had the word festooning f e s n y n g which meant a group of parents. Many of you know that a group of cats is called a clowder. Is a group of badgers as in the following poem. There once was a book with the title about animals very varietals they all know that show. Claws and big furry paws and 10 badgers make a high is all. I. The poetic screeching stylings that there wasn't a fox a group of badgers Murray what say you you know this is you'll hear this a lot in lyric poetry if there's a scene in an app of colors that has to do in a thunderstorm or a rainy day and day it's often described as high until high it all means rain. Rainy. And it read what do you got it's it's a lesion on the exteriors of your body somewhere whether or not it's from. Like sleeps or sleeping sores or bedsores i type of thing it's some kind of a lesion on your body which I'm sorry as I'm not that funny really but. We have an exterior lesion something Raimi or group of badgers. Ok Tony play with all that I might do to write to the dictionary and see if this word actually exists as when I heard it 1st time I thought this would have been the 1st time in 20 plus years I would have said this that sounds aspect like an aspect word you know high awful like a lot Paul. Would just eat chocolate he told. Tomato big pile of cow pies his poop. And now you throw me lesion inside don't know what to. Eat right now let me just ask you when you say lesion If you mean. That high it is an adjective or a noun a noun. So you got a high after that doesn't sound to me. And. I do think there's rain possible marriage and recognizing that the beginning of that word has the. Same high hydroponic Yes Ranny and he had the great the Greek. That Ok there at the end right there right on our face pouring money pours this break it's raining benchers jazz song it's raining badgers Yes it's raining we're going to go with the u.s. Will most likely agree gentleman number 2 I'm good with number 2 number 2 all right Mari they are going to go with your definition what have you got Carol that is just whispered in my ear they're all wet and I know it is from the Greek having to do with rain. After a candle and raising down on the very knowledge. Very good Tony's team earns 10 points which gives us a score now of 3231 are very tired Tony's team has taken the lead by one point and we know that this is accurate information because we trust our scorekeepers Joel and Adam Mart. If. Before we move under round 3 we would like to give a very special shout out to Ben Gartman of Sheboygan and Byron Holtz of Sparta Wisconsin who sent us a delightful care package of wacky wonders and Wisconsin wordplay an environment where ear. Byron's hear all right you'll pass our thanks on the bed. As fate would have it we were not able to fit their contributions into today's show but with your support we do hope to come back and if you would like to contribute ideas questions even just a kind word or 2 please you know where to find us we are at says you Dot Net Let's move on to round 3 now around of what's the difference k.q.e.d. Listener Kathy shield in Berkeley California wrote to us to report that while writing an essay not long ago she found herself by the difference if indeed there is a difference between manipulable and manipulatable After all they do share a common root Kathy reports to us that neither one is included in the microsoft word dictionary which sent down the wormhole of the Internet of course Kathy here it says you we know that feeling previous episodes have devoted absurd quantities of energy to teasing apart the subtleties between such closely rooted twins as obsolete and obsolescence or digitize and digital lives whether it be wormhole rabbit hole or linguistic sinkhole your letter inspired us to peer down a few more of them so panel for 10 points please explain what distinguishes each of these pairs of words that share a common linguistic root Carolynn. Table the verb table and tabulate. 2 to 0 to table and to tabulate yes they share a little is to basically set something aside not take action on it yes to tabulate is to add up. Calculate to count tabulate get the tab you know. 10 points. Table is to postpone consideration of the matter to tabulate is to arrange the data in a table form however if you are British table actually means the opposite it means to present the matter for discussion but we're not British No we're not Tony. Predicted and predicated well predicted is to say something which is coming in the future and to predicate is to base something upon something else that took place in the past yes. Unless you're predicating sitting on a chair. Then that you're both there in real time and hopefully one of you sitting rock a friend like you know but Barry is right and I'm just wasting your time telling them. Before Tony creates his own rabbit hole right here on the stage reading something as predicted or something as foretold something predicated is founded or based on something preexisting. Murray. Frantic and frenetic a new You're going to say and. When I know you know the answer I'm not sure I do but I'll guess that frantic has something to do with panic and with anxiety whereas frenetic has to do with the level of activity that just is kind of haywire and crazy a very active amount of energy right yes thanks. Ken boy. Frantic is basically severely educated distraught Well frenetic is energetic and fast paced Norman yes medical and medicinal I knew you were going to say that it was predicated on previous experience. In which case Murray probably knows the answer well medical is of more general sense of his having to do with the. Securing of the wellness of the human body or anybody's body or it could be a badger spottier supposed to turn the practice of medicine doctors that sort of putting on licensed or otherwise doctors right and then medicinal has to do with th
