ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Long Words, Weird Words, and Other Blah Blah Blahs
Don’t let your mind crash; better to dig into fancy words for flighty people.
On a daily basis, you’ve no doubt heard on the radio, on TV, on video games, and from the mouths of grown-ups a ton of strange words—or maybe not really strange, but words that sound funny and you don’t have a clue what they are about or where they come from…
Did you know that guacamole in Nahuatl means “delicacy”? Or that each time your grandma tells you to pick up your cachivaches, she means to pick up your things? But if these words are already familiar to you because you are more of an egghead than your BFF, you can be sure that your mind will expand when you find out their origins and true meanings.
