look up words i don't know

I think it’s so so cool when I’m with someone and they hear/read a word they dont know and then look it up. Or hear about a person or place they dont know and look it up.

i figure i can be this cool, too!!
from now on, if there’s a word I dont know and i have a dictionary or computer close… ITS BEING LOOKED UP!!!

: existing or being everywhere at the same time : constantly encountered : widespread

That’s word 15!

: promptness in response : cheerful readiness

I had no idea, and probably never would have.

marked by a lack of civility or graciousness,
difficult to work with or deal with,

resembling a CHURL (peasant/smelly person in medieval times)

fruitful in offspring, prolific, OR

intellectually productive or inventive

I had a vague idea that this meant “alot,” and I was right, it does mean an abundance, but it also specifically means those horn shaped things they put on the thanksgiving table with fruit and grain sticking out of them to signify a large supply.

This is another word I’ve seen for years and just never bothered to figure out when it specifically meant

adaptable, open to change, likely to undergo change, or constantly changing (in some contexts)

natural objects used to trace a path back to a place…hansel and gretl style, though they are supposed to be natural things that don’t look out of place and that can’t be easily disrupted if people were to use the path and step on them.

(As evident by my numerous entries, it’s kind of amazing how many words I don’t know when I’m reading a book if I actually mark them)

both noun and verb…a spokesperson or promoter (or speak for or promote I assume)

from the word “prominent,” a high piece of land jutting out that overlooks either lower land or a body of water.
