WOD--Daffynition for Week 28, 2020
 
Thanks to Gurnoor for choosing my daffynition.
 
Here is the newest word for you to ponder and make us laugh:
 
EUCATASTROPHE
 
Let�s see what you�ve got.
 
I really like this word, I hope it is not a repeat....if it is have fun anyway (or let me know and I will change it--no problem).

Well, with the word �cat� in it, it�s gotta be about a cat
 
eu = European Union
Cat = the masters in the world of domestic pets
astrophe = the feeling of being stuck on earth
 
So of course, it is a European feline feeling stuck on earth when it would rather be floating way above the earth

The main character of this story is so much similar to me that a eucatastrophe must happen for my happiness�  sake.

A eucatastrophe is a problem that often occurs in student writing.  In the eucatastrophe the writer has forgotten to place appostrophes.  The problem gets better in the higher grades as the level of education increases.
 
euca- related to education, educate (just kidding. I just made that prefix up)
catastrophe - disaster

IT�S QUITE SIMPLE REALLY, JUST BREAK UP THE WORD INTO ITS COMPONENT PARTS. 
 
SO, EUC + ATAST + ROPHE = THE KETTLE  + IS + BOILING. SEE? SO SIMPLE! OH, YOU�RE WELCOME! ANYTIME!  :)
