Sometimes English is 🆒, but most times...

Happy Monday! I think we've established that I'm a nerd, so it should come as no surprise that I know my way around a spelling bee or SAT vocabulary study book. But as a native speaker, I have to admit that sometimes English vocabulary is pretty difficult.

Most words in this language aren't used regularly. Sometimes I'll look at a word and be like, "Who was the last person to even use this word? Shakespeare?" But at least with this question, I know it's something I'm familiar with. Especially when I'm behind the wheel... Hit 'reply' and tell me what your favorite English word or phrase is! (Mine is dilly dally.) With love, Amatullah 🆒
