PS:I understand "wordsmith" is a creation of new words? Am I right?
'Wordsmith' is a word coined from 'blacksmith.' The verb 'to smith' means to form or forge metal. This is perhaps confusing, since a blacksmith doesn't smith blacks but is called that presumably because he is always covered in black soot, whereas a wordsmith does forge words. But the one consistency of English is that it is inconsistent!
PSS:I hope nobody bored during reading and discussion of this theme?
If they were there wouldn't be any answers here. No, it is interesting. But then we are strange people....
