Good site for Word of the Day contest
 
I �m all in favor of Lynne �s trying to  push the spammer off the page, so here �s my contribution. I love outlandish words anyway, and this is one of my favorite sites to get inspiration for Word of the Day when I �m so lucky as to get to choose a new word.
 
To those of you who think that Word of the Day is a waste of time: remember that this also makes an excellent classroom activity! It �s especially useful when you are teaching about word roots. Here �s a good site for those. If your class is a lower level, try giving the real definition and two fake definitions. (I hereby give permission for anyone here to use any of my fake definitions for any reason!)
