February 27, 2007, TUESDAY, VISAGE

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. Practice makes perfect.....post on....


Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today. Tomorrow I’m bringing in chains, so beware.

The rest of the stuff is locked up in my drawer. I’m just letting all the new students know that we behave as if we were ladies and gentlemen in here. Those two words “as if” can get you an A if you make the subbie laugh.

VISAGE

Pronunciation: 'vi-zij
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French, from vis face, from Latin visus sight, from vidEre to see -- more at WIT

1 : the face, countenance, or appearance of a person or sometimes an animal

Re No. 1: Does this sound as if it could be our very own Cook?
