00:00I do have favourite words. Marvellous is something. It actually became a nickname for me in between my own names.
00:08Lovely apparently is something else that I say a lot of. And then I think there are some Yorkshire phrases
00:14that crop up that actually we try and remove from words. I think vernacular is something that is, you know,
00:23something we should cherish. So flabbergasted. Fabulous word.
00:28My favourite word right now is money.
00:32I mean, this one is a bit of a controversial one because some people think it should have been a
00:35word, some people shouldn't have. But I had on the board, on the triple words, I managed to get bisque
00:41on there. And I think that got me something ridiculous in points. You can't use that word, it's not in
00:48English. You get the dictionary out, it's okay. It was in there and I was in the clear, but people
00:53weren't happy with it. But yeah, bisque was the one I could share.
00:56I used to do English language as an A-level. So I did a lot of studies on words and
01:01lexical fields and all the semantics and everything like that. But words create experiences more often than not.
01:10And, you know, me coming up to you today saying, what are you doing, mate? That has brought me here.
01:15Now, I really like the word loquacious. I can't remember what it means. I just love the pronunciation of it
01:22and how it's onomatopoeic.
01:25I think that's the right term. And outlandish as well.
