Subject: A.Word.A.Day--enuresis
enuresis (en-yuh-ree-sis) noun
The uncontrolled or involuntary discharge of urine.
[New Latin, from Greek enourein, to urinate in : en-, in + ourein, to urinate.]
Enuresis is very largely confined to wettin the bed, and to
male children. There was a hilarious cure devised by the
German non-com in Im Westen Nichts Neues. The bunks were three tiered, with just chickenwire for support. Wet-the-beds he had sleep so that they took turns urinating on each
other. Allegedly it quickly eliminated the unwelcome elimination.
