Word
September 19th, 2006
For those of you who are preparing to take the GRE for grad school or masochism, I give you a word to study: raconteur.
I first heard the word three days ago; since then, I have seen it thrice. Once on Wikipedia, once on the aforementioned “Bullshit!”, and once in the Wall Street Journal print edition.
Be not feckless when learning.
i’ve had the same experience with “skrilla” recently. i didn’t even know the word existed up until about a week ago, but i’ve seen it used in numerous places since…
“The Raconeurs” are also a band, featuring the Jack White of “The White Stripes”.
Knowledge is power!
