Are You a Wordie? Adopt a Word Today

As a self-proclaimed wordie, I was pretty stoked when my friend, Tiger, sent me a link to this rad site called Save The Words.

You can sign up for their Word a Day where a new word via the Oxford Dictionary will arrive to your mailbox each day, so you can expand your ever-growing vocabulary.

And even cooler, you can adopt a word! That's right, adopt your very own word. It's sort of like those Pet Rocks that sold back in the late 70s, where owning one didn't really serve any purpose, but it was still pretty rad.

I adopted the word, "radicarian," which pertains to the roots of words; as in,

"A radicarian knowledge of Latin is of central importance for English etymology."

Go and adopt your own word today!

Viva la etymology.

Viva la learning.
