Another thing of mine got published! This one's an Ask a Linguist column about "Bob's your uncle."
@DialMforMara happy to have this answer. We had a British neighbor when I was growing up who was very close to our family and I remember being puzzled as a kid by the phrase.
@DialMforMara That's so cool, congrats!
@DialMforMara I'm sorry, but I don't have an uncle Bob. (Literalism at work there...) this is awesome, so is there somewhere we can read it?
@JigmeDatse The magazine is here
@DialMforMara It's 508ing at the moment. :(
@DialMforMara And apparently linguists (this magazine) abhor standards. :( Flash has been pretty much dead for at least 2 years. Some still use it, but oh well...
@DialMforMara Congrats! 👏👏👏
@DialMforMara Awesome! 👏
