Away With Words

away with words is a show about language and how we use it. A few weeks ago Grant Barrett was talking to Martha Barnett about elevator terminology. We heard from Ladonna O'Rata who listens to away with words in Kuna Idaho along with her son Jojo. She sent this really lovely sonnet using some of that language. If you've got something that you've been inspired to write based on the show we'd love to read it 877-99673 or send it an email to words at wayward radio dot org.
