Regular visitors may have noticed that I am a bit behind in posting entries. As some of you know, I have multiple sclerosis and it does, from time to time, interfere with my work. In any case, if you have submitted a word and it has not appeared, don’t assume that it won’t in the near future — it’s probably just fidgeting in the queue.

I have added a “rate this” widget to the end of each entry where folks can rate each other’s contributions, but it occurs to me that it’s not entirely clear what is being rated. The post itself, I suppose, both the word and the explanation. Obviously, the more interesting the explanation the better. “I just like the sound of it,” while a perfectly good reason to like a word, is not all that evocative for the rest of us. Where did you first hear the word? Does it have any specific associations for you? Does it evoke Paris? Your first kiss? Third grade Geography class? Do you think the word has been unjustly overlooked? Is it, like “penultimate,” widely misunderstood?
In any case, if you see a post that strikes you as especially neat, nice or interesting, give it a star or two. Or five.
