Do you know, thanks to the library website, I’ve just been online and had one of the most enjoyable two minutes I can remember for a long, long, long time…(Purely by chance - whilst looking up a definition of a word, obviously!)…
Without further ado, dear readers, let me welcome you to the OED online…
So, here it is... you look on Bex-L for `Online Resources` then check out the OED (Oxford English Dictionary). Next, sign in by typing your library ticket number…You’ll find something called `Lost for words’? Choose one, and you’re away!…
“Bunny Hop”, “Spiry”, “Bumbershoot”, “Tufthunter” and “Pumpkinification”…
Just a few of the bootylicious words that may come tumbling out.
If you like words, (and I`m sure you do, dear reader), then this page is the bee’s knees, and it’s free to use with just your library card.
Well, that’s quite enough of this blogging lark, I`m off back to my random words search.
Oh look!, “Draggle”…
(Do YOU have a favourite word?...Do tell)
Adieu.
