Coolest Words: Undulation
http://coolestwords.blogspot.com/2008/06/undulation.html
Thursday, June 12, 2008. The marvelously shaped word undulation looks like it is the opposite of dulation, but there’s no such word. As a matter of fact, undulation comes from the Latin word unda. Which means wave. An undulation is a wave or wavelike motion. Undulous means of an undulating nature. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A logophile's excursions through the world of words.

Coolest Words: June 2008
http://coolestwords.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 18, 2008. Someone just thought me a new word and solved a mystery at the same time. To me (two parts deaf, one part hairless, three part Jack Daniels) the words reflux and reflex sound the same, especially since I didn’t know that reflux existed. Reflux, obviously has to do with the word flux that we know from phrases such as “a state of flux,” and it means flow. A reflux is a back-flowing. Here’s where I learned it:. Thursday, June 12, 2008.

Coolest Words: My very second entree
http://coolestwords.blogspot.com/2008/06/my-very-second-entree.html
Wednesday, June 4, 2008. My very second entree. Vitreous comes from the Latin word vitrum. Which means glass (no really). Come to think of it, I’m sure that the Dutch word vitrage. That’s a sleek see-through curtain) comes from the same root. And the word vitrine (that’s both English and Dutch) too. The verb that goes with all this is vitrify, which obviously denotes the process of turning something into glass or a glassy (vitric) substance. Let us know if you got yelled at for that. My very second entree.

Coolest Words: Few, less, much and many
http://coolestwords.blogspot.com/2008/06/few-less-much-and-many.html
Wednesday, June 4, 2008. Few, less, much and many. The same difference between much and many separates less and fewer. And what you say has to do with whether the stuff you’re talking about visibly consists of little bits (like peas: many peas) or not (like water: much water). If you don’t have as many or much as you first figured, you say fewer for the bits (fewer peas) and less for the not-bits (less water). Labels: fewer and less. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Wednesday, June 4, 2008. My very first entree. Some say some words are funny. Some say some words are cool. Some are in words for money. And I wonder how they off that pull.
