The Verbivores | 11/15/02 | Mistress Bella

Posted on 11/15/2002 7:19:40 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....

appetency
appetentadjective

1. A strong craving or desire.
2. A tendency or propensity.
3. A natural attraction or affinity.
