On the latest episode of Mignon Fogarty's Grammar Girl podcast, I talk
about the art of antedating words, discussing such examples as "scalawag,"
"Ms.," "jazz," "The Big Easy," and "supercalifragilistic..." Shout-outs are
given to antedating superstars like Fred Shapiro and Barry Popik, and ADS-L
gets a mention.
