I’ve looked that word up before but didn’t remember it. I need to try to use it this week so that I can remember it. Thanks for the reminder!
You’re welcome, and thank you for hosting WWW!
Interesting. I don’t think I know about this word.
I had never heard it before that I can remember.
It’s a bit of an old fashioned word, my grandmother used to use it quite often so it worked it’s way into my vocabulary. I don’t think I’ve ever used the word in conversation, but it just seemed to fit in this sentence
I think it’s neat that you learned unusual words from you grandmother!
Good word!
Thanks Mary!
I do not believe I have ever seen that word before. Now I am educated!!
I love learning new words even though I may not every use some of them 🙂
