13. Indubitably, I shall endeavor to

maintain my epistles at a more rudimentary level so there will be no contretemps over their denotation.

[Rabrrrrrr]

14. Can you tolerate at least a soupçon of them?

[swimboy]

15. I am sorry you have to put up with

all this schmarrn. But then that's why we're all here! :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

16. I guess it is my own fault

that I started this thread :)

[swimboy]

17. That is what happens!

It it because they like you that they tease. :hug: Did you see I used the word you taught me? Did I use it correctly?

[MissHoneychurch]

19. of course I saw it

and yes you used it correctly

:hug:

I don't mind the teasing at all. Since I am doing the same :D

[Redstone]

18. Quondam.

Transmogrification.

Anodyne.

Redstone

[MissHoneychurch]

20. are these ENGLISH words??????? n/t

[swimboy]

21. These are not words that anyone uses much.

Except that a doctor might sometimes ask a patient for a Redstone sample.

[Redstone]

22. Yup. I actually have used them in conversation. That shows you why nobody

listens to me, doesn't it?

Redstone

[MissHoneychurch]

23. nah ...

you might just need to hand out a dictionary so that people can follow you in what you are telling them :)

[LynzM]

24. Yeah, what she said ^

:hug: How's life treating you, dude? I'm a fan of learning new words, particularly in context (where I stand a chance of figuring them out!)

[Redstone]

27. Doing, OK, kiddo. You? Hey, how long you think until the electricity

goes out? Glad I'm not driving over the Baldwin Bridge today with this damn wind.

[LynzM]

25. Frustrating sometimes, huh?

:hug:

Here's a good word of the day that you should already be familiar with: Impeachment! *grin*

[MissHoneychurch]

26. Yes, I am familiar with that one

could you please show me the practical part of it too??? :)

[LynzM]

28. Oh, please!

I would love to see that word clearly demonstrated!! :bounce:

Sigh.

Erm, speaking of big words... someone gave us a metal street sign that says "Kurfurstendammerstrasse" :rofl: Now what am I supposed to do with that one?

[MissHoneychurch]

29. Well, the Kurfürstendamm

is THE shoppign street in Berlin.

what you can do with it??? No idea :shrug:

[LynzM]

34. I know... and I'm so not one to shop there!

LOL, it's just funny... friends of ours got it for us 'because it's in German' without knowing what it was about, really. It'll probably go up in our entryway or something, for the irony ;)

[azmouse]

30. Why use big words when diminutive expressions will suffice?

[MissHoneychurch]

31. hey I actually know those words

:P

[Orsino]
