I read from electrometallurgy to electronic mail. Electrometers have really changed over the years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrometer Ooh! Electromotive force has fun formulas! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromotive_force You gotta check those muscles! Electromyography! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromyography And here you can hear what it sounds like. It's very clicky. https://youtu.be/4kkIvP1jNLA?si=VaJnYs-J476eO-Uq&t=559 Our understanding of electrons is probably going to evolve greatly in the next 50 years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron They are 1.602 x 10 to -19 coulombs which (I think) is 0.0000000000000000001602.

I read from electrolysis to electromechanical. Here you go! Check out Jonah and myself talking about the film Gaslight from 1944. Obviously I encourage you to watch it while you're watching the movie like a commentary. https://youtu.be/LdnnDFmyokw The word of the episode is "electromagnetism". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetism 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 "The Dictionary - Letter E" 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://www.threads.net/@dictionarypod 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 electrodialysis to electroluminescent. I don't have time to learn Electrodynamics, but it seems interesting! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_electromagnetism I feel so dumb reading about things like "electrojet". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrojet The word of the episode is "electroluminescent". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroluminescence 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 "The Dictionary - Letter E" 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://www.threads.net/@dictionarypod 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 electric organ to electrodesiccation. The first thing to know about "electroshock therapy" is that it's now called "electroconvulsive therapy:. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroconvulsive_therapy Here's an interesting tidbit about "electrodermal activity" "...skin conductance can be a measure of emotional and sympathetic responses." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodermal_activity The word of the episode is "electric organ". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_organ_(fish) 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 "The Dictionary - Letter E" 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://www.threads.net/@dictionarypod 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 electoral to electricity. Electra has a complicated history! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electra There's so much drama in Greek Mythology! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orestes The Electra Complex isn't spoken about nearly as much as it's counterpart, the Oedipus Complex but I guess that's because there's a lot less evidence of people going through that, in some form. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electra_complex Amber can attract lightweight particles! https://www.getty.edu/publications/ambers/intro/6/ Some US states are still using the Electric Chair! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_chair The word of the episode is "electrical storm".

I read from eldress to elector. The Eleatics have been thinking for about 2500 years! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleatics Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Virginia, West Virginia, and the territory of Puerto Rico have declared Election Day a civic holiday. I'm in IL and I don't remember having a holiday on Election Day in 2020, but my memory is pretty bad so I guess it's possible! :) But it could also potentially be dependent on the business. I'm not sure! Either way, It needs to be a Federal Holiday! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Election_Day_(United_States) The word of the episode is "eldritch".

I read from elastic to Elba. Here's more info on "euphoria" because the good book said elation is "pathological euphoria" which is essentially "obsessive happiness". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euphoria Here's my dramatic reading of the song "I'm Just Ken". I made it after only seeing the movie once, I think, but I know the song MUCH better now so I think I could do a better job. Oh well! https://youtu.be/_K692nYA7jw The word of the episode is "elastic scattering". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_scattering And here's "elastic collision" which is related. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_collision 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://www.threads.net/@dictionarypod 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 elaborate to elastic. Elaine of Astolat loved Sir Lancelot so much that she died of heartbreak. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elaine_of_Astolat I think it's interesting that "Elamite is generally considered a language isolate unrelated to any other languages." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elam The word of the episode is "élan vital". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89lan_vital 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://www.threads.net/@dictionarypod https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757
