Word For The Day, Monday 11/11/02
The Verbivores | 11/11/02 | Mistress Bella

Posted on 11/11/2002 7:26:40 AM PST 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....


aver\uh-VUR\, transitive verb:
[Inflected forms: averred; averring]:

1. To affirm with confidence; to declare in a positive manner, as in confidence of asserting the truth.
2. (Law) To assert, claim, or declare as a fact.

Etymology: Aver is from Old French-Medieval French averer, from Medieval Latin adverare, to confirm as authentic, from Latin ad-, ad- + Medieval Latin verare, from Latin verus, true. Other words deriving from verus are very, which sometimes has the sense of "true"; verify, to prove the truth of; and verdict, a decision or judgment, literally a "true-saying" (verus + dictum, saying).

Lawyers Seek to Bar Malvo's Confession

"I shot that FBI bitch," young John Malvo did aver
But the lawyers work for Malvo; all for him, and none for her
As they trash the Constitution
There's no chance for restitution
Ain't no way to make the victims like they were

Would you please go punch xsex's hole?

Seems her boyfriend Seena Hannity was in the area last night and didn't get around to it for some reason.
