I read from dipl- to diplopia. Diplococcus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplococcus Diplodocus is named thusly because of the "double beams" on the underside of tail bones which are basically 2 parallel boney protrusions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplodocus "Humans are diploid organisms, normally carrying two complete sets of chromosomes in their somatic cells..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ploidy Diplophase https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/diplophase Diplopia can either be voluntary or involuntary, but if it's the latter you might want to get that checked out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia The word of the episode is "diplomacy". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplomacy Theme music from Jonah Kraut https://jonahkraut.bandcamp.com/ Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter B" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter C" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter D" on YouTube Featured in a Top 10 Dictionary Podcasts list! https://blog.feedspot.com/dictionary_podcasts/ Backwards Talking on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmIujMwEDbgZUexyR90jaTEEVmAYcCzuq dictionarypod@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/thedictionarypod/ https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757
I read from dip to diphyodont. Diphosgene was originally made for chemical warfare. Not cool. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diphosgene Diphteria sounds pretty terrible but there is a vaccine! Yay Science! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diphtheria I guess "diphyletic" is the same as "paraphyletic" which my brain is currently having a hard time grasping. So many words! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphyly Humans are Diphyodonts! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diphyodont The word of the episode is "diphthong". Smack those vowels together and you've got a "diphthong". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diphthong Theme music from Tom Maslowski https://zestysol.com/ Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter B" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter C" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter D" on YouTube Featured in a Top 10 Dictionary Podcasts list! https://blog.feedspot.com/dictionary_podcasts/ Backwards Talking on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmIujMwEDbgZUexyR90jaTEEVmAYcCzuq dictionarypod@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/thedictionarypod/ https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757
I read from diorama to dip. As you know, Castor and Pollux (the "dioscuri") are "...an example of heteropaternal superfecundation." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castor_and_Pollux The word of the episode is "dip". What are you favorite dips to dip food into?

I read from dinucleotide to dioptric. A Diode is used in electrical thingies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode It looks like many stories have been written about Diomedes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diomedes If I understand the basics, a Diopter is a unit of thickness of a lens that determines how far away from the lens the light focuses. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioptre The word of the episode is "Dionysus". Wow! Dionysus is the god of many things including "...grape-harvest, winemaking, orchards and fruit, vegetation, fertility, insanity, ritual madness, religious ecstasy, festivity, and theatre." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dionysus Let's Party! The Dionysia was the 2nd most important festival of the year! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dionysia I think living a balance between Dionysian and Apollonian is best. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollonian_and_Dionysian Theme music from Tom Maslowski https://zestysol.com/ Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter B" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter C" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter D" on YouTube Featured in a Top 10 Dictionary Podcasts list! https://blog.feedspot.com/dictionary_podcasts/ Backwards Talking on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmIujMwEDbgZUexyR90jaTEEVmAYcCzuq dictionarypod@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/thedictionarypod/ https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757

I read from dine out to dinitrobenzene. The movie with the famous "A dingo ate my baby" is from "A Cry in the Dark" which isn't nearly as well-known as the quote. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094924/ But there is also a movie just called "Dingo" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104109/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3 The word of the episode is "ding-a-ling". The song "My Ding-a-Ling" was originally written by Dave Bartholomew in 1952 and then covered by Mr. Berry in 1972 which made it very popular. I played clips from both in the episode. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Ding-a-Ling https://youtu.be/OgyF2Mv360Q https://youtu.be/wiCSSIEUukk Theme music from Tom Maslowski https://zestysol.com/ Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter B" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter C" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter D" on YouTube Featured in a Top 10 Dictionary Podcasts list! https://blog.feedspot.com/dictionary_podcasts/ Backwards Talking on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmIujMwEDbgZUexyR90jaTEEVmAYcCzuq dictionarypod@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/thedictionarypod/ https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757

I read from dilative to diligent. I don't know for sure but I imagine "dime novels" of the 1860s to 1940s being kind of like the summer popcorn movies we have these days. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dime_novel The word of the episode is "dimension". They break my brain. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimension Theme music from Jonah Kraut https://jonahkraut.bandcamp.com/ Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter B" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter C" on YouTube "The Dictionary - Letter D" on YouTube Featured in a Top 10 Dictionary Podcasts list! https://blog.feedspot.com/dictionary_podcasts/ Backwards Talking on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmIujMwEDbgZUexyR90jaTEEVmAYcCzuq dictionarypod@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/thedictionarypod/ https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757
