EarthDiverse: Seminar on Word Anatomy, Etymology and Creativity

todd from EarthDiverse

Let’s Talk About Words: A Translinguistic Seminar on Word Anatomy, Etymology and Creativity
Date: Saturday 12 March 2022, 10:00am-3:00pm
401 Anglesea St, First Floor (above Copier World, side entrance)

If you’re an author, teacher, researcher, creative or simply feel that there is a lot more to words than straightforward messages, then this workshop is for you! Come explore the language mechanisms behind word formation and learn how to express yourself creatively through building your own, exclusive and unique words that anyone will understand. Learn about the fascinating field of etymology; how the seeds of words travel through time and different languages, creating strings of meaning that reveal how we think and see the world.
Available as both an in-person workshop or via Zoom. More on our website...

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.

Poll: Do you go to live music gigs?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

It’s “tough” running dive bars and speakeasies but a growing association is shaking up the New Zealand independent music scene.

These are the places where rising stars cut their teeth, members say, but they’re challenged by noise restrictions, alcohol licensing rules and the need to take on multiple tasks outside booking bands.

Do you go to live music gigs? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
