This week, Kyle and Emily are shaking things up! They discuss the meaning and origin of the word quagswagging, a quivering, swaggering word with a delightful ring to it.

Our hosts dive into the two parts of this word in turn. They talk about quagmires, quavers, quakes, and quacks. Then they move on from the swamp to talk about who’s got the most swagger and where to get the best swag.

These two halves come together to make one beautifully repetitive word: quagswagging. Kyle reveals the witty French writer and crafty English translators behind the word. And Emily tries her best to guess a few other reduplicative words.

Join us every week as we explore the fascinating origins and meanings of words, uncovering the hidden stories behind language and how it evolves over time, for language enthusiasts and etymology buffs alike.
