Stringer is the new word of the day.
Take a look at the spelling.  Were you thinking about a fish stringer?  If so you would be right but you know me by now that would be too easy.  I know how about a second-stringer as a person ranked according to their ability?  Well you would be right there also.  However the one meaning for (strin’er) is a horizontal timber connecting upright posts to a frame.  So was that one of your guesses?  What say you?

First of all I do not like this at all.  I’ve tried this more than once and I still don’t like it.  Some of you may and no doubt some of you enjoy this but not me.  Just the thought of it send negative thoughts through my mind.  But who am I but just one opinion.  I bet you are wondering what the meaning of (nep) is and for those of you who want to know it’s a turnip.  Did not like them when I was a youngster and I still don’t.  … (11 comments)

This one some of you will know some won’t.  Strangely this is associated with a home and this is the first time I can remember hearing this.  I’m sure it’s been around a lot longer than me and will continue when I’m long gone.  The meaning of (en tab’le cher) is a horizontal superstructure supported by columns and composed of architrave, frieze and cornice.  If you know what that means your one up on me.  Wouldn’t know it unless I was looking at a picture of it.

Beadle is the new word of the day.
You will be (as the saying goes) amazed to find the meaning of this one.  Look close to the word and how it’s spelled.  It has nothing to do with a home in one sense but in another you do not want to meet this person.  So I’ll give you two different meaning and I’ll let you guess which one you wouldn’t want to meet.  The first meaning of (bed’l) is a messenger of a law court, the second a minor parish officer in the Church of England, who kept order I … (7 comments)

Well this is a new one on me but most words I write about is new to me.  Anyway I wonder if this is a new one for you.  This is Archaic in origin wherever that is.  My wife accuses me of doing this all the time.  I think I only do this about 80% of the time which doesn’t give me a lot of time for anything else.  The meaning of (e man’) is at or with great speed, tastily; suddenly.  She (wife) tells me I’m going at full speed or … (10 comments)

Privatism is the new word of the day.
You bet ya I know of people who have this problem.  Once you read the meaning I’ll bet you know of some people who also are afflicted with this issue.  The spelling of the word should give you a hint as to its meaning.  Haven’t guessed it yet OK the meaning of (pri’ve tiz’em) is concern only with one’s private life and personal involvements rather than with public affairs, social values, etc.  So what say you?

Oubliette is the new word of the day.
I’ve seen homes that remind me of this.  The origin of the word is from France and the break down looks like (oo’ble et’) but can you guess its meaning?  This would make a great place to store wine for those of you who drink adult beverages.  If you haven’t guessed it by now you won’t so the meaning of the word is a concealed dungeon having a trap door in the ceiling as its only opening.  Although I wouldn’t suggest you call a basement a dungeon I know of a few … (7 comments)

Jenesaisquoi is the new word of the day.
The word of the day is pronounced (zhen sa kwa’) which is a mouthful.  We are faced with this sometimes although those of us who have a vivid imagination can deal with this issue.  There is however agents and clients that cannot so have you guess the meaning?  My guess would be you haven’t so the meaning is something elusive, or hard to describe or express.  Haven’t you had those listings that you search for words on how best to describe them?  Just think of the new word to add to your … (7 comments)

All I can say is tasty.  What a wonderful way to start the day with this or at least the meaning I’m going to give it.  Are you a cook?  Do you like to make tasty stuff I know I do?  So without further adieu the meaning of (in kras’at) is to make or become thick or thicker in consistency.  Of course my thoughts turn to gravy ladled over some hot biscuits with maybe a side of hash browns, ham, bacon or sausage… Hummmm tasty

I usually don’t do this but in this instance I think it’s appropriate.  Yesterday I posted a word that also started with the letter “R”.  In this case I thought it complimented the other word so here we go.  I’ve known these types of people sad to say.  So you may ask what the meaning of (rem’er e) is it is anything that hinders or impedes.  So what do you think?

OK you word sleuths let’s see if you can get this one.  When I was a cop in Bentonville AR. I saw this person from time to time with this.  Come on give it a try before you look at the meaning of the word.  The person was of course Sam Walton the man of Wal-Mart.  Unless you knew him you would have never guessed it.  So I won’t keep you in suspense any longer the meaning of (tat’er di mal’yen) is in tatters; worn and ragged, wearing torn and ragged clothes.  … (8 comments)

I know I’ve written about this before but used another word I found.  Apparently like so many words depending on where you look there are several different meanings.  I remember just the other day I found a word and wrote about it.  Apparently some ambitious person looked into another source and found a totally different meaning.  SO THEREFORE I will repeat it again I find 99.99% of my words in Webster’s®.  If there is another meaning and you find it good for you.  <phew>  Now the meaning of (en’ki rid’e en) is … (10 comments)

Some say I have this problem, some say they wished I did.  I’ve known people without this and people who thought they had one.  Have you figured out what it is?  OK I won’t keep it from you much longer.  The word is Greek in origin and the meaning of (en sef’e lan’) is the brain.  So have you known or know of a person who does apparently not have one of these?  What say you?

You people know me don’t you?  Some of you do other just think they know.  When you hear the meaning of this word you’ll know what I think about myself.  Don’t ask the wife because she will assure you I’m not this word.  I guess that’s why they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  So here we go the meaning of (hi pur’be le) is exaggeration for effect and not meant to be taken literally.  So I think of myself as one of the largest jokesters and I also … (10 comments)
