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”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of 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....

I'm cracking up here! I didn't know the hub was bilingual!
Ignore that whiny note. I found it buried under a bunch of other pings. I am burnt tonight and happy the soccer fields are closed so I can stay home and plot a dinner strategery.
