A.Word.A.Day

PRONUNCIATION:

(ee-NUHN-see-uh-toh-ree)

MEANING:

adjective: Announcing; declaring; pronouncing.

ETYMOLOGY:

From Latin ex- (out) + nuntiare (to announce). Ultimately from the Indo-European root neu- (to shout), which also gave us announce, denounce, pronounce, renounce, and pronunciamento. Earliest documented use: 1693.

USAGE:

“‘You know, they say there are as many different Hamlets as there are actors to play him,’ says Walken, asked to consider the issue of his trademark enunciatory style.”
