The Complete List of Words of the Week from 2008

Throughout 2008 Rattling Books has brought you words of the week from the Dictionary of Newfoundland English both here on this blog and through our sister facebook group.

More recently the word of the week has also been announced each Sunday morning on the CBC Radio program Weekend Arts Magazine with host Angela Antle.

Along the way we took tangents and had a recipe contest.
