Fascinating. 

I use to try and learn a new word everyday...today, listen more but reading less. It seems we need a good winter to encourage more reading and more real learning. Summer is but a season of eating and running... Wasn't the far side of 65 supposed to be a time for leisure and reflection?

Benison - A blessing; a benediction.

 

I saw it in a piece by local verbivore Richard Lederer:

English - what a language! 250,000 distinct words. And even after a lifetime
of collecting them, I still find more.
