A Militant Grammarian Quiz About Language Shorthand

Our Militant Grammarian, Katherine Shurlds, gives us a quiz regarding metonymy: the use of the name of one thing to represent something related to that thing. Think "the crown" used to represent the monarcy.

Kyle Kellams is KUAF's news director and host of Ozarks at Large.
