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”.

Limn

    tr.v. limned, limn·ing (lmnng), limns

      1. To describe.
      2. To depict by painting or drawing.


Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for 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....

Limn. A citrus fruit like lemn. Not quite the same so it could be called sub-limn-al.

The America Obama did limn
In Osawatomie, was imagined by him

Proclaimed this smug, clueless jerk
