I Use A Lot Of Words...

I like words.

I happen to use a lot of them. Because it seems that I talk a lot. And I talk more, and faster, when I get excited or nervous...

I recently started putting words on paper in the form of a book, that I hope to finish this year, then see where it goes from there.

In the meantime, I thought I'd start sharing some of my word's and their meanings every now and again.

Take for instance the word gregarious~

[gri-gair-ee-uhs] –adjective

1. fond of the company of others; sociable.

2. living in flocks or herds, as animals.

3. Botany . growing in open clusters or colonies; not matted together.

4. pertaining to a flock or crowd.

Use it in a sentence:

It was a Gregorius little group that gathered around Grammy's little island in the kitchen. Laughter was the main form of communication as they amassed  a plethora of items to express themselves with the play dough they excitedly helped make, on this grey and stormy December day. 

Being a gregarious person myself, it makes me very happy that this passel of grand children are companionable too.



Don't be afraid to crack open a dictionary to find the perfect word, and, how to use it...you may be surpised to read a book or article with a dictionary as a companion...it may open up deeper meanings.

Go now. Have fun with words. May God bless.
