Here is our vocabulary building exercise. Each week we will be posting an unusual word that may not be in regular usage. The aim is to build up the thesauri in all our writing brains.
To further that aim, we will not be providing obscure words, but words that are a little unusual and present an alternative to more common words.
As to what everyone would like to do with these words, it is up to you. If you feel inspired, by all means write something and post it. We love to see all new creations.
