Word For The Day, Thursday 10/24/02

Posted on 10/24/2002 6:23:02 AM PDT by Bella_Bru

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....


ebullient \i-BUL-yuhnt\, adjective:

1. boiling up or over; hence,
2. joyously unrestrained; manifesting exhilaration or excitement, as of feeling; effervescing.

Etymology: From Latin ebullio , ebullire , ``to bubble, to boil up,'' from e , ``out of, from'' + bullio , ``to boil.'' Bullio is also the source of the verb to boil.

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Very questionably effeminate, and to be perfectly honest, not very good looking.
