Frog gigging

Just when you think you have a decent vocabulary, along comes a niche hobby you know absolutely nothing about—but millions of other people do, and they have their own language.

Copyeditors traditionally make a style sheet for each project we handle. We turn it in with the edited files to let our clients know we don't just gloss over any words we don't recognize. Like good corporate citizens (and obsessive word freaks), we look them all up and list them neatly.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the world of RVing, courtesy of Moon Florida Camping.
