This warm-weathered week, we Girls Talk about a word we recently learned. I agree with Ms. Kaye's former professor's advice - it's good to learn at least one word a day. Although I must admit, my memory is no longer as sharp as it was when I was a student. :p
Here is my new word:
macarism (n.)
taking pleasure or praising another's joy;
a beatitude or blessing;
the act of making another happy
Ain't it a lovely word with an unselfish meaning?
Its verb form is macarize which means to congratulate; to declare as happy or blessed.
As we go through Girls Talk, let's macarize one another for stretching our noodles a bit to learn new words. ;p
"I macarize you for a new word learned and shared." :D

It is a nice word. Very selfless.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice word to learn! I think its good meaning will make me remember that word easily! :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAs for me, I learned the word "ICHI" this week, thanks to my teaching daughter! Lol. Hope to see you at my entry if you got a chance! ;-)
I like this word very much! When I try it on my lips, it leaves me with a very good feeling!
ReplyDeleteniiice. although it reminds me of another word with a not-so-good meaning: macabre. but it also reminds me of macaroons (my favorite childhood treat) well, i'll definitely remember that word now :D
