Adopt a Word

Who knew that there were so many unwanted, unloved words just waiting for homes? So many locupletative vocabulary words with which to enhance our blateration that may go the way of the ten-cent store if we don't take a stand with our sospital acts on their behalf. "How?" you may ask. By adopting a word! Go to SavetheWords.org and you can adopt your very own word! You can use your word in your everyday speech, in your writing, emails, texts, or poems. You can use it to name a pet or a boat. You can even get a tattoo of your word to help you remember how to spell it. Your word doesn't care how you use it. It just wants to be needed. It doesn't cost any money, and you'll be making a huge difference in the life of a neglected word. It takes only a minute. Just a minute of your time to save a word. Please. There are so many words just waiting for your love, and many of these words have so little time left. Please act today.

Thanks to M.A.S. at http://scribbledit.blogspot.com/2010/11/i-adopted-word-today.html for alerting me to these words' terrible plight.

My daughter and I adopted the word "snollygoster" today. We're so proud.

    I adopted a word too. It's sesquipedalian. It means " a type of person who likes to adopt words" (no not really)
