Liked the episode? Let us know by sending a text message.Time for another Sophie and Sebastian story. Sophie recently broke her arm when she went sledding. Fortunately it was a minor buckle fracture, and she should be better soon. I also wanted to write about people's favourite words, and the way words can start to haunt us when we think about them a lot.Some of the more difficult words in this story are the following:Enjambment: when there is no pause at the end of a line of poetry but the idea spills over to the next line.Flibbertigibbet: a gossipy, talkative personEpiphany: a sudden realization or insight. Also, the Christian feast of Epiphany (Jan. 6) celebrates the revelation of Christ's birth to the magi.Serendipity: when something unexpected happens and it turns out really well. So, what's your favourite word? Support the show
