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.Like and follow us on Instagram and Facebook ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@ButterNoParsnipsPodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on YouTube @ButterNoParsnipsFollow us on TikTok ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@ButterNoParsnips⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/ButterNoParsnips⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or by visiting ⁠www.bnppod.com⁠Produced by⁠ ⁠Seth Gliksman⁠⁠, Kyle Imperatore, and Emily MoyersMain theme and accompanying themes by Kyle Imperatore
