Watch your words! And mind your definitions!
All joking aside I just came across a very interesting and painlessly educational website from Merriam-Webster (the reputable source for dictionaries that you've probably used in the past)
This link takes you to the Word-of-the-Day (WOTD) part of the website.
Readers can sign up for the WOTD by clicking on this link. When You sign up, you'll learn a new word every day because a new word will be delivered via email to your inbox! How cool is that?
When you get a WOTD you will find a definition of the word at the top of the email. In addition Merriam-Webster provides you with several examples of how the word is used in modern conversation or in current/relevant sentence.
Finally, there is a section in the email titled 'Did you know?' This gives the readers context of the WOTD and gives even more background and information for the word.
WOTD is a great way to increase your vocabulary in a non-stressful, educational and informal manner. Its great stuff!
Enjoy the site and the new words you'll learn!
Regards,
Stu
