Word For The Day, Monday, 4/29/13
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".
recrudescence; noun
breaking out afresh or into renewed activity; revival or reappearance in active existence
Etymology: 1721, from L. recrudescere "re-open" (of wounds), lit. "become raw again," from re- "again" + crudescere, from crudus "raw" (see crude) + inchoative suffix -escere.
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....
Dang cold and cloudy here today. Yesterday was so beautiful, today is just a dang shame. Gotta go walk anyway.
WTF do you mean “vulgar”-said she in a ladylike voice...
I’m starting to like cold and cloudy-it fits my mood most of the time in this fustercluck world...
North coast of Spain, small mining town with a medium-sized (coal-powered) power plant that needed governor valve repairs and steam pipe welding.
Snowed yesterday morning ... 33-34 degrees. Big fat wet drops. Down here, in the valley, it melted by mid-day with the rains that followed. Still lots of snow up on the mountain tops around the towns.
Been wet (or sleeting, or snowin’, or hailing, or something ...) for all but 3 days since March 21.
recrudescence
Any word with “crud” in it must somehow refer to politics.
she looks so grown! i guess with two four-eyed parents she didn’t have much hope. xsbaby is the only glasses wearer [other than me] in the family, and i have had glasses since i was 7 yo. xshub has to wear glasses for reading but is otherwise sighted.
i am afraid to ask what that might mean....
you’re full o crude sense...
57 and cloudy here, dang chilly in the house! A+++
you are fairly obsessed with Spain these past few years, robt, are you not? how often are you over there>?
most def A+++
Except my Marine was a Hollywood Marine.... never went to paris Island... ;^)
That is exactly what I thought of.....
Adorable in glasses. She certainly knows how to mug for a camera.
Thank you! It was chilly in the morning yesterday-cooler than outside-but it warmed up to 73 or so during the day-I’m not going to use the furnace or fireplace any more this year-come summer, I’ll be wishing for that cool...
yes i know, i can’t in good conscience turn on anything heat related, so i am wearing a fleece in the house. it will be hot and humid in no time.
OMG I LOVE her. That was an awesome rant.
nice hipster glasses she chose too!
that’s exactly what xsbaby said! LOL!
