Posted on 12/30/2002 12:19:38 AM PST by Bella_Bru
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. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the word of the day; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Final Exam
As promised, today we will be having the final exam of the semester. Below I have linked 40 past WFTDs. The exam is simple. You must use 5 of the words, in however many sentences you like, that somehow relate to the news. The minimum is 5, and for using the minimum, you will get an average grade of a C. Use more, your grade goes up. Use less, it goes down. Fail to turn in your exam, and I will submit your name to Principal Rob for a counseling session.
Here we go:
1. farrago
2. abditive
3. indolent
4. froward
5. ken
6. risible
7. hariolate
8. anhedonia

Gentleman, I suggest you two sit on opposite sides of the classroom today. I don't want to see two identical exams turned in.

The peripatetic coquette (who shall remain innominate [Miss Whyisa]) deftly extracted the lothario's risible, abditive farrago.
"Wow, that's quite anhedonia!", she mispronounced. "It's no calumny to say that I sapiently hariolate that with a little froward, operose brio and sedulity you could salaciously incommode my munificent desuetude sufficiently to cure my atrabilious cynosure of its anhedonia!"

"It's no calumny to say that I sapiently hariolate that with a little froward, operose brio and sedulity you could salaciously incommode my munificent desuetude sufficiently to cure my atrabilious cynosure of its anhedonia!", she ejaculated, getting "anhedonia" right this time.

Although it is an
insouciant take on the plight of Cardinal Law and Trent Lott, Larry Miller is spot on (and hilarious) in his observations. Cardinal Law's
tergiversation is beyond question. When the
calumny heaped upon him became more
incommodious than he could bear, he bowed out. Not out of any sense of honor. Larry Miller rightfully
vituperates Cardinal Law for his
abditive shenanigans with respect to the abuse.
As to Lott, Miller risibly refers to the Senator as "knucklehead". No one ever accused Trent Lott of being sapient but still, the thought of Lott wearing a sign saying knucklehead elicits much mirth.
This coquette wishes her fellow students a bibulous and salacious New Year and all the footle that that they can handle ; )

The
indolent farrago in the
Middle East has
incommoded this
operose taxpayer (me) to
promulgate a request that the Bush Administration
prepone the attack on Iraq.
Ha, six in one sentence, xs. Beat that.
