Some choice words

I recently realised that there's actually a very large amount of literature that I've been exposed to recently, and after placing a large order for geeky star wars books on amazon recently I'm going to attempt to catch up with the white whale soon before I end up giving you a monstrous list!! I've also been exposed to good writing in other forms, 24 being a very inovative and addictive series!! But there's also been some shoddy writing out there too - one that's stuck in my head is the attrocious single by "Liz Kay" produced by the creators of Cascada - "When love becomes a lie, it's time to say goodbye" then ad infinitum... freakin' genius!!

OK, time to get on with a few more words that have taken my fancy.

Superfluous adjective
1.being more than is sufficient or required; excessive.

Heinous - adjective

hateful; odious; abominable; totally reprehensible: a heinous offense.

Parochial
–adjective
1.of or pertaining to a parish or parishes.

Chronology noun, plural -gies.
1.the sequential order in which past events occur.

Bemoan verb (used with object)
1.to express distress or grief over; lament: to bemoan one's fate.

OK, well there's one more o' these then I can get back to picking words that take my fancy as they come, hope you've enjoyed reading these so far - if you have a favourite do drop a comment or why not blog about it yourself?

Farewell
