The ebullient couple |
Bloviate:('blow vee ate)- to speak or write verbosely and windily. Bernadette tends to bloviate in 90% of her blogs.=)
Noisome:('noy sum)-really strong smell, enough to cause vomiting. It would not be kind to say your sister is noisome.
Propensity:('pro pen sitee)-an inclination or natural tendency to behave in a certain way. Brian Marcus has a propensity to bounce off the walls if he drinks pop.
Segue: (seg way)- (not seg goo=)) To move smoothly or unhesitatingly from one theme or section to another. The produces section at Meijer segues into the meat department.
Amiable: (ay me a bull)-having or displaying a friendly or pleasant manner. Margaret is one of the most amiable people I know.
Amicable: (ah mic ah bull)- having a spirit of friendliness; without rancor or serious disagreement. We will go to Olive Garden for lunch if everyone is amicable.
note: amicable and amiable are both words. Someone once accused me of making up amicable. The emphasis is slightly different. Amicable carries with it the idea of no disagreement.
Proclivity: (pro cliv it tee)-a tendency to do something regularly. Bernadette has a proclivity towards running on Tuesdays.
Anyway, I have decided that Wordless Wednesdays are not ME. I'm too verbose for that. Instead I am going to do Wednesday's Word of the Week-WWoW. I will try to pick a new to me word, give a pronunciation, and maybe the etymology, followed by a way to use it in your life. I think it will be fun. It will increase our usable vocabulary from 3000 to maybe 3050, and I can teach them to my kids too. It will be short and sweet. Which was the thought behind my Wordless Wednesday attempt. Plus, there are lots of great photography blogs out there, from much more talented photographers. I can't even justly claim the term photographer.
Vocabulary expansion inspiration=)
Here's to expanding our bloviation prowess.
