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....

Back when I was in the National Guard as a full-timer, I used to have to write a monthly newsletter for members of the unit. One time I was looking for an “r” word to go with the XO’s last name for alliteration purposes. I have never heard the word recrudescence before or since until now.
A mere two weeks after I cleaned the bathtub, it was remarkable in it’s recrudescence.
can another sub also send a ping? still at home and so my list isn’t the most recent. Thanks!
i hope you said something nice about him! ; ) A+++
you are the first to be rude, crude and tattoed : ) A+++
There seems to be a recrudescence of gratuitous & “acceptable” vulgar language in the common discourse...
Third person ping.
As a candidate, O’s effervescence
Disguised his naïve prepubescence
This corrupt wheeler-dealer
Fooled the fools;”I’m a healer”
Broke the bank, led the left’s recrudescence
That one is a keeper!
oh F you and the horse you rode in, why you b!tchin’? : ) JUST KIDDING! is that kind of what you mean???
thanks!
EXCELLENT!! A++++
Thanks.
When Whyisa’s Marine hubby was at Paris Island, he had to “Dress right, dress!” so his recruitdistance was at the right interval between ranks.....
A+++ hi robt. where are you?
Look who has glasses now.
Like my new shirt?
Puttin’ da CRUDE in recrudescence, yo....
It is 61 and partly cloudy, but we have rain and another record setting cold front on the way mid-week-I love global warming!
Along with the Boston bombing
Is another plot that failed-
Just like 9-11 once again,
Poisoned letters were mailed
And to make deja vu complete,
A recrudescence of that goal
That terrorists aspire to
To give them a starring role-
To set off bombs in NYC-
No jihadist could ask for more
Now that Obama’s minions
Didn’t shut the immigration door...
