Word of the Day: one new word, and how to use it
A new word each day, with a definition and an example sentence.
Open Word of the Daywordoftheday.base31.orgWord of the Day is a vocabulary habit small enough to keep. Each day brings one word with its definition and an example sentence showing it in context.
Because it is a single word rather than a list, it takes under a minute — which is the point. One word you actually remember beats twenty you skim.
What it does
One word a day
A small, finishable dose of vocabulary instead of an overwhelming list you will not return to.
Definition and example
The example sentence is what makes a new word stick, because it shows where the word belongs.
A daily habit
The same word for everyone, refreshed each day.
