SECOND SHIFT FOR WORD OF THE DAY
You know the rules of the competition. Don�t look it up, don�t google it, and if you know what it means, either keep the knowledge to yourself or join in and give us the craziest and funniest meaning. The rule is that the winner is declared at midnight Spanish time."
The word of the day is "Tatterdemalion". Let �s start the game and see what you can come up with. Have fun! |

tatterd - misspelled tattered (i.e. in bad condition)
emali - misspelled email
on - bad grammar: should read in
Conclusion: tatterdemalion (n) - my email inbox is all messed-up, esp. due to some spam that managed to get in despite the automatic filter. E.g. Darn! I have a tatterdemalion again!
