Word of the day

One useful word a day, picked for everyday writing and speech. Come back tomorrow for the next one.

How to use it

  1. Read the word, its meaning and the example.
  2. Press the synonym and rhyme links to go deeper.
  3. Come back tomorrow for the next word.

How it works

The words are chosen for everyday use in writing and speech, not for rarity. Each is one you can use in an email or conversation the same day.

Questions

Is there an email list?

No. There is nothing to sign up for; the page changes by itself at midnight.
