Word For The Day, Monday, 7/14/14
;In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".
suppurate; verb (used without object), sup·pu·rat·ed, sup·pu·rat·ing.
to produce or discharge pus, as a wound; maturate.
Etymology: 1555–65; < Latin suppūrātus (past participle of suppūrāre ), equivalent to sup- sup- + pūr- (stem of pūs ) pus + -ātus -ate1
"I'm glad I can't explain Just in what jaws you were to suppurate: You may have thought things would come right again If you could only keep quite still and wait."
-Philip Larkin
Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.
The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....

Well worth repeating and copying ( if you don't mind)
