A Game of Tennis with Three Players?

Aloha! We have another A Way with Words podcast goofy-footing among the grommets.

Martha's been putting together a collection of your favorite collective nouns and Grant joins her to swat around a caller’s question about what to call a game of tennis when you have three players. "Canadian Doubles"? "Australian doubles"? A double on the rocks?

You can join the conversation about collective nouns already underway in our discussion forum here:

And, finally, rev up your minds for something free! We have a spare copy of Jeff Pruchers' book, The Oxford Dictionary of Science Fiction, that we'd like to give away. Find out more here:

You have ten days, so get to coining!

Cross-eyed and cross-fingered,

Martha Barnette and Grant Barrett
