疯狂点赞都不嫌多；这播客太棒了。如果觉得这个有点过于小众冷门，不妨让我迎合一下大家的低级趣味，推荐“Chaucer's Vulgar Tongue”[0] 作为入门单集？[0] https://historyofenglishpodcast.com/2019/09/25/episode-129-c...

……大部分是这个版本。床头柜上的书单：- John McPhee 的《Annals of the Former World》，读了 300 页，但多本书合辑带来的冗长感让我有点读累了。- Jonathon Green 的《The Vulgar Tongue》，读了 40 页。我一直在找这本词典的实体本。- Italo Calvino 的《蛛巢小径》（The Path to the Nest of Spiders）。
…edition for the most part. On the nightstand: - Annals of the Former World by John McPhee 300 pages into it, but I got a bit tired of the redundancy inherent in combining multiple books into one. - The Vulgar Tongue by Jonathon Green. 40 pages in. I've been looking for a copy of the dictionary. - The Path to the Nest of Spiders by Italo Calvino.
