I started picking up reading again. And when I say reading, I mean hard-core reading for hours. Well I have the time for it now. These are some of the vocabulary I picked up! Time to shing shing my vocabulary. If you've not read one of my earliest entries last year, 'shing shing' means to sharpen.
Words I have no clue about: Cabal, disingenuous, arbiter, apphorism, nostrums, pundits, nonparil, derring-do, attest, lexicon, egalitarian, yellow journalist [i'm pretty sure it doesn't mean a Chinese journalist], virulence, ombudsman, white noise
How cool is ENGLISH.
