Word For The Day, Monday, 5/19/14

;


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".

connubial; adj.

of marriage or wedlock; matrimonial; conjugal: connubial love.

Etymology: 1650–60; < Medieval Latin connūbiālis, Latin cōnūbiālis, equivalent to cōnūbi ( um ) ( cō- co- + nūb ( āre ) to marry + -ium -ium) + -ālis -al1

Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for 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....

I wish I could share some pics I saw recently. The groomsmen all had on hot pink ties to match the bridesmaids and hot pink socks. They all posed in a line with their trousers pulled up and the ties showing. Very cute pic.

aw thank you for that! am dieting for OUR wedding in Sept so won't be eating any of the sweets!

this is definitely the marrying time of year. We learned of two engagements over the weekend. One of xsteen's bestfriends/bridesmaids got engaged on Friday and another family friend got engaged as well. After a dearth of weddings in our lives for decades, i think we are heading into the season of the wedding now.

Yeah, Glen is very ginzo Italian, he’s certainly a grandma’s boy! Good kid though, despite that shifty looking smile.

Tyler and Abbie, the one in blue, have been dating since 5th grade. A lot of people remarked that tyler is finally taller than Abbie! For years, she was much taller than him.

Neo, Michael Sam sends his best wishes for a happy marriage while reminding you it is now illegal to not wish him the same...

I think they were more excited about the artisanal sausages. As Craigy Ferg would say, is that code?
