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.

#F99 (fire control to fire hall) ft. Steve Goodie 13.02.2025

I read from fire control to fire hall with Steve Goodie.  https://stevegoodie.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@stevegoodie3801 http://dmdb.org/ https://marscon.org/2025/ https://thefump.com/     I'm sure it's out there but I was having some trouble finding a comparison between fireworks and the Revolutionary War casualties.     "The first modern fire escape was patented by Anna Conelly in 1887." http...

I read from FIRE to fireclay.     Watch out for fire ants! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_ant     The word of the episode is "fire-breathing".     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.    Create your  podcast  today! #madeonzencastr     Theme music from Tom Maslowski https://zestysol.com/     Merchandising! https://www.te...

#F96 (finish to Finno-Ugric) 10.02.2025

I read from finish to Finno-Ugric.     "Finite difference" seems to be related to math too advanced for me.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference     In basic terms, it seems like "finlandization" is when a more powerful country says that a less powerful, nearby, smaller country can't argue against them, but the smaller country is still independent.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finlan...

#F95 (fingerpicking to finish) 07.02.2025

I read from fingerpicking to finish.     The word of the episode is "fingertip". Here's my Fingertips video at the live show in Chicago: https://youtu.be/yqk6fgV0SZ8?si=SsxxllQwGw63_jPR And a silly backwards talking short: https://youtube.com/shorts/LYENJjIQ7cc     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.    Create your  podcast...

#F91 (finalise to finch) 03.02.2025

I read from finalise to finch.     "Darwin's Finches" have VERY differently shaped beaks...and that's the point! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin's_finches Since seeing “Emilia Pérez”, I should mention that I’ve read up on more reasons why people don’t like it and I urge you to read them too.   The word of the episode is "financier".     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to sa...

#F90 (filter tip to finale) 31.01.2025

I read from filter tip to finale.   Oops! I described the cigarette backwards! The main part is white and the filter is orangey.     I also like how she says "The queen of putrescence!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ7rMBmJ80E     Fimbria are "approximately 1 mm in width around the distal tubal opening" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallopian_tube#Structure     The word of the episode is "filth...

#F89 (filmography to filter paper) 30.01.2025

I read from filmography to filter paper.     The word of the episode is "filmography". Here is my filmography on IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm5251118/     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.    Create your  podcast  today! #madeonzencastr     Theme music from Jonah Kraut https://jonahkraut.bandcamp.com/     Merchandisi...

#F88 (fill-in to film noir) ft. Matt Fagerholm 29.01.2025

I read from filet mignon to filiopietistic with Matt Fagerholm, film fanatic, critic, writer, etc. Here are some of his links: https://indie-outlook.com/ https://www.instagram.com/mattfagerholm/ https://letterboxd.com/mattmovieman/ https://www.rogerebert.com/contributors/matt-fagerholm https://cinemafemme.com/team/matt-fagerholm-contributing-writer/ https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1qD4M9Ap0Wtyv0...

#F86 (filet mignon to filiopietistic) 27.01.2025

I read from filet mignon to filiopietistic.     It seems like "filial generation" is used mainly in breeding experiments but I don't see why we can't also use it in normal breeding (like when humans make a baby) and call the baby part of the filial generation.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F1_hybrid     A filibuster is basically about "obstructing progress"... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filibu...

#F85 (filariasis to filet) 24.01.2025

I read from filariasis to filet.     The word of the episode is "filbert".     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.    Create your  podcast  today! #madeonzencastr     Theme music from Jonah Kraut https://jonahkraut.bandcamp.com/     Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar     "The Dictionary - Letter A" on Y...

#F84 (figure eight to filaria) 23.01.2025

I read from figure eight to filaria.     Here is "Figure 8" by They Might Be Giants: https://youtu.be/DMebRvE9oH0?si=YszEFDYHyvvHomcI     It's helpful that in figure skating you can actually SEE the figure that was made because it's literally etched into the ice. In fact there's a couple great photos of people looking at those in the first link. And those Special figures look REALLY hard to make o...

#F83 (figurative to figured bass) 22.01.2025

I read from figurative to figured bass.     The word of the episode is "figured bass". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figured_bass     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.    Create your  podcast  today! #madeonzencastr     Theme music from Jonah Kraut https://jonahkraut.bandcamp.com/     Merchandising! https://www.teepublic....

#F82 (fig to figuration) 21.01.2025

#F81 (fifteen to fig) 20.01.2025

I read from fifteen to fig.     "Fifth Disease" really has a terrible name and the first 4 on the list don't seem to go by the same naming convention.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_disease     The word of the episode is "fifth wheel".     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.    Create your  podcast  today! #madeonzenc...

#F79 (fielding percentage to fieldwork) 16.01.2025

I read from fielding percentage to fieldwork.     Typically "field of view" is used for "external apparatus" but if you're talking about the eyeballs (retinas), then the average human has about a 210 degree field of view. I'm sure that lessens for many humans as they get older. I think mine is a bit less.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_view     The word of the episode is "field trip".    ...

#F78 (field to fieldhouse) 15.01.2025

I read from field to fieldhouse.     The word of the episode is "field glass".     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.    Create your  podcast  today! #madeonzencastr     Theme music from Tom Maslowski https://zestysol.com/     Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar     "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTub...

#F76 (fiddle to fidelity) 13.01.2025

I read from fiddle to fidelity.     A high fidelity (hi-fi) vinyl will become lo-fi if it's played a lot because the grooves literally get worn away. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fidelity     The word of the episode is "fiddlestick".     Use my special link  https://zen.ai/thedictionary  to save 30% off your first month of any Zencastr paid plan.    Create your  podcast  today! #madeonzencastr  ...
