Such a waste. At least dear Plutarch has begun to list the Anu Word-a-Days here for the record. But somehow just a list of even Anu's list seems a waste of valuable Awad real estate. Mmm...what we need here is an on-going project. Maybe weekly, maybe not...Yes! That's it! We'll turn these silent digs into a vibrant workplace of ideas about the nature of words. No no no, not the origin of words but rather the future of words, that is, an examination of the influence of words in today's world and tomorrow's. Yeah...this is going to be great!

Well since tsuwm has livened up this place with such interesting postings I think it best that I move my great idea down to "English As A Global Language". Hey tsuwm, how about you post in this weekly section a summary of your last week's "Worthless Word of the Day" ? This would be convenient to us here and it would add another feature to Awad as well as promoting your site. Yes?
