This thread follows on from my recent thread on AIBU saying that I wanted to add 100 words to my vocabulary. The response was incredible; so much encouragement given, and ideas shared.
And AdaColeman suggested I start a Word of the Day thread, so here we are.
The way this will work is that I will post the Word of the Day (each day 
) and state its meaning as I understand it which will no doubt have been gleaned from Google, books, wherever.
The aim is not to teach or preach or offer words that ordinary folk, like me, are not likely to use in general conversation. They will be words that we may already have heard of but have not felt assured enough to use in conversation.
Perhaps we can aim to use the Word of the Day three times in our conversation in the next 24 hours and report on how that went.
Let’s see how this thread develops. My aim is to continue for 100 days by which time I (and hopefully you too) will have an extra 100 words in your vocabulary.
The first Word of the Day is INIMITABLE meaning incapable of being copied, in a class of its own.
