TIL that the Vikings set up a base in North Umbria from which they launched the rest of their colonization of England. The Vikings bastardized the Saxon name of the town, calling it “Yorvic” (sp?), and that town became known as York, so isn’t the name New York fitting? #HistoryOfEnglishPodcast

@ddl @javorszky Since our convo Friday about how enunciation changes over time and creates new words but I couldn't come up with an example on the spot, I've had a mental note to find one for y'all. Here you go! ☺️

Ye Olde #Christmas Virus Update:

10-ish hours of sleep. Throat slightly less scratchy and no tonsil pain yet. Slight cough, slight sniffle.

I have high hopes that this one will remain mild, as viruses usually hit me like a freight train. Right now I’m just sick enough to stay in bed and be pampered all day 😁

Big mug of hot beef broth for breakfast. Plenty of grapefruit juice in the fridge. #Knitting, #embroidery, #HistoryOfEnglishPodcast, and #BBC. https://historyofenglishpodcast.com/

Good morning, friends! I got nearly ten (10) hours of good sleep and I feel so much more human today. I took half a tab of Benadryl at bedtime and, though I woke up a few times, was able to put on another episode of my favorite #Podcast and go right back to sleep each time. Gott sei dank. #HistoryOfEnglishPodcast https://historyofenglishpodcast.com/
