michael.tremberth commented on the word oboe d'amore
While the oboe d'amore is often specified in baroque music, the well-known double concerto for oboe and violin by J S Bach was specifically written for the oboe d'amore. Much modern music has been written for the combination of soprano oboe, oboe d'amore, cor anglais (pitched a fifth below the soprano oboe), and either bass oboe or bassoon see tweets from @alingrt and @ReedsandTools.

michael.tremberth commented on the word witcraft
"Fuck a ouija board , fuck a witcraft bitch , NO THANK YOU !” @TuuMadreeGueyy. Such is the contribution of a tweeter (the 4th tweet on the witcraft page). If this were a comment I would be inclined to categorise it as SPAM. It's a good example of pointless, misogynistic rage.

Although considered obsolete by Johnson, witcraft is still very much a word to know, treasure and, appropriately, use.

On the sauce for goose, sauce for gander principle: arctocymmachy - or, a totally new sport, arctotauromachy.
