Show Notes

Today on Leonard Lopate At Large, Kathryn and Ross Petras join Leonard in discussion on commonly misused words!

“English-speakers are sure their language is especially perplexing. But while it has its quirks, so does every other language (aside from planned ones like Esperanto). In one way, though, English really is confusing. A small new book, ‘That Doesn’t Mean What You Think It Means,’ by Ross and Kathryn Petras, helps readers distinguish many words that are confusingly similar.
