So apparently All Souls College at Oxford are doing away with their one word essay test – check out this story on it.
It’s pretty clear that I’ve been a bad blogger. What I was thinking is that perhaps commenters could give me a word each – and I’m preemptively ignoring whatever Gawain tries to put in – and I’ll do a blog entry on each word.
I’ll give a week’s time to accept words, because I don’t know who all still trickles in here. Then I’ll either write an essay a day till they run out, or not. If there’s no interest.
It has to be a noun. That’s it. Just one noun – that can be found in the Oxford or Merriam Webster dictionaries – per person.
So, go!
Is fuckstockings a noun?
How about: fandango
What the… man, I bet my word would be awesome too. You don’t know what you’re missing.
My favorite word of all time: Lionine. And, I’m going to cheat and give you a bunch of words. You can use them or not use them. Hootenanny. Caterwaul. Loquacious.
OH! I thought of another. Tentacular.
Go!
Glorify. Ready, Set, Go! And thank you for the link. Might be an interesting idea for a regular journal entry, or somethin’ Anyhoo, cheers!
Hope I’m not too late to the game – happiness.
In light of recent events, not sure you’re still up to this, but I’ll throw my word in there: superfluous.
