The top 18 Q&As of 2018

Each week for more than four years, our Q&A column has sought to answer (in a roundabout way) the tricky questions, anomalies and outright outrageous behaviour of the English language. The answers aren’t always clear cut, but the banter is definitely always top shelf. Please enjoy our favourites from the past year!

And if you want to explore the full set of Q&A columns, you’ll find them here. Happy reading!
