Gymkhana is the new word of the day.

Good morning not sure what day this one will post but I hope all is going well.  When I try and think of all the places where this happens it is just overwhelming for me.  In any respect this is one of those words where you either know it or not.  The meaning of (jim ka’ne) is a place where athletic contests or games are held.  Just think of all the football, basketball, baseball hockey, tennis and the list goes on where contests are held.  I wonder if anyone knows if the data has already been gathered.  Join us tomorrow for another journey into the wonderful world of Wordsmith.

On to the first.

Make yourself a great day.

James, if I were to say to a bunch of my friends "let's find a gymkhana and play some football," I would be the only one not playing! Enjoy your day!

Hi James,

I think that the word is different. Silly me, I thought that it would have been a "stadium or event center". But nooo...LOL

Have a great day in Rogers my friend.

Best, Clint McKie

Morning James, great word to add to my vocabulary.  Can't wait to see the strange looks when I use it.  Have a great day.

I thought a gymkhana is where Hawaiians play basketball, but what do I know?

Good evening James.

This reminds of Lake Placid were the athletes are training for the Olympics.

And here I thought it was a Japanese restaurante set up and decorated to look like a gym.  Silly me.  Better luck next time.
