The Dictionary

I read the English Dictionary in short sections, comment on it, make bad jokes, and sometimes sing little songs. I hope it’s more entertaining than just reading the dictionary alone. It’s an evolving project so the letter ”A” had lower quality, plus less commenting and jokes.

Pre-F Bonus #3 - Antique Dictionary 29.07.2024

This book is SO big!  The dictionary I read from is 7" x 2" x 9.75" so it's about 136.5 cubic inches But this new/old dictionary is 8.5" x 5.5" x 11" which is a whopping 514.25 cubic inches.

I read from eyeshot to Ezra, the last of the E's!!!     We'd like to plug the film that we're both helping to produce which is called "Unplugged"! https://linktr.ee/unpluggedfilm unpluggedthefilm@gmail.com     I guess the "eyetooth" is just an (upper) canine in the human jaw and it might be called that because it's below the eye.      I think the English meaning of the Icelandic volcano "Eyjafjall...

I read from extra point to extravagant.     "The pyramidal tracts are named because they pass through the pyramids of the medulla oblongata" and the "extrapyramidal system" controls posture and muscle tone (things that are involuntary). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramidal_tracts https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrapyramidal_system     Extratropical Cyclones form around 30° to 60° away from the...
