THURSDAY’S TOP TEN
I have found a book, well rather Peter had this book squirreled away in the archives of our apartment and when I saw it I knew immediately it was a great source for blog posts. I think I’ll go through the alphabet; so here are 10 crazy-who-ever-heard-of-these words!
- abbey-lubber: a lazy monk pretending to be ascetic; any loafer.
- abscotchalater: one in hiding from the police (slang).
- absquatulate: to leave hurriedly, suddenly, or secretly
- abuccinate: to proclaim, like a fanfare
- abrosia: fasting.
- abulic: pertaining to a lack of will power; also aboulic
- abligurition: extravagance in cooking and serving.
- abigeus: a cattle rustler.
- abbozzo: a rough draft or sketch.
- abacinate: to blind by putting a red-hot copper basin near the eyes.
Now, I mean really, did you know any of those words? OMG we only touched on the A’s as far as “ab” , can you see how far we can go with this???
