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. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Do you have a word you'd like to see used? Freepmail me, and if it has not been used in a while, I will add it to our list.
Do you have a birthday coming up? Please FReepmail me with the date and I will make a special birthday thread for you!
eclat\E*clat"\; noun:
1. Great brilliance, as of performance or achievement.
2. Conspicuous success.
3. Great acclamation or applause.
Etymology: French, brilliance, from Old French esclat, splinter, from esclater, to burst out, splinter, probably of Germanic origin.
Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!
Here is my example with WFTD.
Allow me to be the first on this thread to say I know the Orangemen will be greeted with great eclat upon their return to the 'Cuse. :-)

Holy crap, Hobbster, we had an Continental US APB, Interpol and Scotland Yard alert out on you yesterday.
We thought XS had kidnapped you and.........well, I don't even want to think about what she could have done to you during your incarceration.
Welcome back.

Today is the day, Gabz. Those chronically tardy classmates will be new subscribers to the New York Times, Eleanor Clift's personal website and the DU.
It's time to initiate some "tough love"!
