Have fun with a new word each day. I'll choose a word. You make up a meaning.
Visit my Writing Bug website
How to Play:
1. I choose an obscure dictionary word.
2. You invent a wacky meaning and add it as a comment.
3. After a certain time I list the true meaning and choose a winner for the invented meaning.
There are no prizes, just lots of fun!
Remember, children use this site too.

- I am a children's author who has had a handful of books published by trade publishers. They're in book shops and libraries. I've also had a sackful of books published by educational publishers. These are mainly found in schools. I love words and that's why I invented this blog site.

Longanimity is the hatred of old age.
Lorenzo.
Longanimity is the desired state of many people with a high public profile, who would love to be able to pop down to the local shop for a Mars bar and a newspaper without being recognised by paparazzi.
Longanimity is the mathematic formula used for determining the length of a piece of string.
A feeling of being elongated. It can occur in dreams or delirium, but is most often associated with psychedelic drug trips.
Longanimity is a viking threat which involves removing certain parts of the body.
To commit loganimity is a great sin if carried out needlessly.
Loganimity describes those frequent occasions when you do not wish to be recognised and choose to dress up as a dead tree. This disguise is naturally most effective in forests and woodland rather than the high street.
Afficionados belong to the loggers club, a branch of which holds loganonimous parties where everyone dresses up as a log. It takes a while to twig who everybody is. They are, of course, all barking mad!
