Thanks for the tip Sylvie. I didn�t realise Lindsey had posted it while I was away.
And you are indeed a good pupil as all good teachers should be  What do you think? Shall we leave it or would you prefer a new one? |

And it would be pronounced how and by whom and I guess making people use it is a sort of punishment?????????
Sylvie, no wonder you remember it - who wouldn �t? A perfect challenge for a spelling bee contest! |

floccinaucinihilipilification : the process whereby the chief co-ordinator of the Word of the Day, who on their return after a short absence, define the Word of the Day provided by the substitute co-ordinator, then promptly forget and repost the same word at a later date in the near future.
i.e. floccinaucinihilipilification = Frank�s memory lapse where he has completely forgotten that he actively participated in this definition 
Cheers
