Word For The Day, Monday, 9/24/12
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".
noisome; adj.
1. offensive or disgusting, as an odor. 2. harmful or injurious to health; noxious. Synonyms 1. fetid, putrid, rotten, stinking, mephitic.
Etymology: b>1382, "harmful, noxious," from noye "harm, misfortune," shortened form of anoi "annoyance" (from O.Fr. anoier, see annoy) + -some. Meaning "bad-smelling" first recorded 1577.
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....
Those are simply unbearable. We were visiting Southeastern OH this past weekend and my SIL said that the obama ads were ubiquitous, but during our stay, we saw far more Romney ads, so maybe he’s just starting to release ads there. A+++
Like most good American words handed down to us by the folks at Etymology (etty-moe-loggy) noisome can mean just what you need it to mean. For example, Jimmy would get sloshed and want to know “Why”, Why what he didn't know. He is a noisome, we all figured more annoying than just some.
Anyway there is the breaking it down into phutons method.
Noisome is like not taking the blame the schoolhouse fire,
No is o me! (On a hysterical note: A student actually did burn down the high school in middle of Bloomington, Ind. many years ago. Folks said they could see the smoke twenty odd miles away)
LOVE IT! A+++++
well yes, because these were my friends and family!~
A+++ please God we have the chance to disinfect this January!
OMG seriously? i was pretty much not paying attention to news this weekend, this is horrifyingly tacky. A+++
and Kimberly Guilfoyle’s ex! A++++
A+++
Ask and ye shall receive. Here is a MUST READ article on how the noisome media is attacking our nominee (unjustafiably): http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2935452/posts?page=1
Someone else on Free Republic called her Lie-a-watha......
Does anyone know what her numbers looked like after the "wicked piss-ah" debate with Brown?
WOW! that is interesting!
wow, how egregiously clueless they are! A+++
well your homework is never noisome, so no matter how intelligible, you maintain an A+++ avg ; )
media bias drives me so insane, i can’t even read it!
Saw it in the theater weeks ago, but will pass this on. thanks.
Thank goodness Kimberly came to her senses and ditched him.
That needs to go out on Twitter.
I just sent Jonah a link.
