The first episode of this podcast about the history of words and the trends they follow throughout history.
Here, I tackle the word "extra", showing how these 2 syllables gave us many disparate words not only in the English language, but in the Romance languages as well, twisting and shifting its sense along the way.

Great podcast
Very interesting! Exactly what I was looking for. Goes into specific detail about all words derived from a single word and it is not at all confusing as you would expect. More please!!
