Grammar Girl Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing

Shownotes Transcript

  1. This week, we shed light on quirky restaurant slang like “kill it” and “Chef Mike.” Then, we tackle the long-standing debate over what to call residents of Michigan — "Michiganders" or "Michiganians" — and what Abraham Lincoln has to do with it.

The "kitchen lingo" segment is by  Susan K. Herman, a retired multidisciplined language analyst, editor, and instructor for the federal government.
