Word For The Day, Friday, March 6, 2015 – circumvolve


In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".

Circumvolve; verb; to revolve or wind about. Upon my soul, I believe there is not a Letter in those words, round which a world of imagery does not circumvolve … Samuel Taylor Coleridge to Sir Humphrey Davy, October 9, 1800, in Letters of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Volume 1, 1895 Hope not in mortal things!—so years do say, / So warn the hours, which circumvolve the day. Sir Thomas Hawkins, edited by Rowland Freeman, "Book 4. Ode 7. To Lucius Manlius Torquatus," Kentish Poets, 1821 Circumvolve came to English in the late 1500s from the Latin circumvolvere meaning "to roll round."

The EXEMPT enabling 114th Congress ought consider
taking less time preening and circumvolving the MSM
and take a few moments to read the US Constitution
which they swore to uphold by Oath.

Around the Clinton’s doth the world circumvolve
From every problem, they can still disinvolve
Her separate email account
His pedophile friends don’t count
The liberal media is quick to absolve
