I have heard the word defenestrate multiple times from Shashi Tharoor even in your interview ......If there would be an award for best teacher, it has to be yours ! You remind me of some of the great English teachers I am till date proud to be a student of....They were also English nuts and I really miss them as they left our school.....Equivalent credit to the person who puts his/her heart and soul in drawing these illustrations this is much better than pasting google images...

Thanks man ,for taking my name in your lesson video. I'm over the moon. A while back I was not so into in etymology of a specific word, however now I can consider that I'm taking a keen interest in that. Besides these my new favourite words are sobriquet, bourgeois, donnybrook, sybaritic, griffonage, philocalist, itrepid etc. Please do mention these as well and thanks a ton again ......😊🙏👍👌

Shambolic- I remember this word was popularised by Mitt Romney during prez election race in the USA, some 12 years ago. The word omnishambles also was popularly used.

@srikanths5178 2 ай бұрын

I remember watching the 2012 presidential debates live. Not sure if Mitt Romney popularized the word Shambolic as it isn't that uncommon in the US but Joe Biden (whose family is of Irish descent) popularized the Irish word "malarkey" during his debate with Paul Ryan. This became an instant hit with the audience and the press alike. When Biden was asked by one of the reporters what malarkey meant he said " It just means a bunch of stuff ( nonsense) in Irish". After that debate, malarkey became a buzzword in the US . People who were accustomed to using "baloney" started using "malarkey" in its place though they both mean the same. Bloviate is another popular word in the US , which is rarely, if ever, used in India.

Thank you for very crisp explanation..!! Just one suggestion, could you add graphical images when you are explaining the meaning of word? I know it is lot of work, but it increases clarity. Hope I have used correct English.
