Word play: Submit your questions about word origin, meaning

On Thursday, University of Minnesota language professor and etymologist Anatoly Liberman will stop by the studio for one of his regular discussions about words and language.

Have you always wondered about a word's origin or original meaning? We'll pass your questions along to Liberman to see if he can provide some answers during the show.
