[Swprograms] Wordmaster on VOA



** U S A. VOA heard with a fascinating weekly feature about the English (or
rather, American) language; it was UT Wed Jan 11 at 0647 on 7295, immediately
following Earth & Sky. But when else can we hear it, and where can we find the
title?

Here is the 7-page VOA English program guide.

It is apparently within the half-hour Africa News Now, weekdays at 0630-0700
which is on 1530, 6080, 7295 and 11835. There it is: ``Wordmaster``, which
appears numerous times on UT Wednesdays. Here`s the blurb, which does NOT show
the time I actually heard it! Apparently the 0630 semihour is a repeat of the
0500:

``Wordmaster --- VOA's Avi Arditti brings you the fascinating stories of words
and phrases found in today's English language.
Wednesday 0117, 0217, 0406, 0517, 1217, 1317, 1417, 2217, 2317 UT
Sunday 2217, 2317 UT``

Most of these are being entered with frequencies in the next revision of
Monitoring Reminders Calendar.
