I had a thought the other day that I wanted to begin trying to expand my vocabulary. However how fun is it to read the dictionary by yourself?! Yes indeed. So I decided to inflict my boredom upon my fellow posters.

I shall begin.

Spatchcock spach'kok, v or n (English, probably from dispatch and cock)

To insert into a text too hurriedly or inappropriately; a fowl stuffed and cooked immediately after killing.

As a verb, spatchcock is a term that should be picked up and used by every editor who has ever had to read a manuscript that has been prepared in such a manner.

Abba

cunc·ta·tor Pronunciation[kuhngk-tey-ter]–noun


a procrastinator; delayer.

abba - good one snaith. Cant stand the group though!! Abba - thank you for nothing!!!

Permambulator - n.one who perambulates;
a baby carriage;
an instrument for measuring road distances.

I should point out that my dictionary was published in 1914!

so for the young ones here, a baby carriage would be called a buggy, push chair, pram.........
