ABC Words

[Twelve]

You basically have to come up with a word that you don't think people use much and post it going by order of the alphabet. For instance, the word, extemporaneous would be the kind of word I'm looking for. It doesn't necessarily have to be long, just as long as it isn't used very much or just sounds intelligent. I think you get the idea. You can post up to twice in a row, unless an hour passes without someone else posting.

Oh yes, when you post a word, post the definition with it.

I will choose a few random numbers, and whoever is on those post numbers will get some blessings.

Have fun!
