Today is (the unofficial) National Dictionary Day in honor of Noel Webster, who is considered the Father of the American Dictionary.
This (unofficial) national day marks a day to celebrate the importance of the dictionary and to improve vocabulary. So in honor of that, I have learnt a new word that not only sounds intriguing, it has a very intriguing meaning and it is the only English word with three Ys.
Syzygy: a rare astronomical event involving three heavenly bodies.
What new word will you learn today? Please share...
This is my blog about stories: my stories, other people's stories, stuff about stories, people talking about stories, pictures that go with stories and stories about writing stories. There's always a story to tell or a story untold.
