The 'Word of the Day' Game

[Jeanied]

Now there's clever! This has kept me awake way past my bedtime! Thanks Ollie - a new pooter trick every day. And Snadger - it pays to increase your wordpower!

[OllieMartin]

ooooh, I just found tomorrow's word, if I get on soon enough.

[zazen999]

Ollie - don't wish your life away sweetie.

[Pumpkin Becki]

I can't believe only Ollie did Transmogrify - it was so easy ie: I love it when the leaves transmogrify in autumn...oh well. And Ollie, if your word is for the 21st, does that mean we get a day off?

[zazen999]

Too easy perhaps......we were expecting a torrent and didn't get it.

We've now got 24 hours to think about tomorrow's useage......perhaps that's the way it should be???

[Pumpkin Becki]

Could be, its certainly a sticky one...I'll go away and think about it. I wonder if you get extra points for using the word in multiple threads...

[rustylady]

So does that mean we're not having a word for today?

[Pumpkin Becki]

...Lets ask...Ollie?? Ollie??? Hey Ollie!!

[SarzWix]

Here you go, you can have;

anthropomorphism
an·thro·po·mor·phism

Attribution of human motivation, characteristics, or behavior to inanimate objects, animals, or natural phenomena.

[rustylady]

Ye gods Sarah, that's going to take some thinking about!

[OllieMartin]

And Ollie, if your word is for the 21st, does that mean we get a day off?

Doh!
I posted it just after midnight last night meaning it for today, but in my sleepy stupor managed to post it for tomorrow.
I guess I'll re-post it tomorrow morning an we can try anthropomorphism today.

[Pumpkin Becki]

Doh!
we can try anthropomorphism today.

Sarz has definately set us a toughie, I don't think you could use it as an 'ism' easily...

[zazen999]

LOL @ Ollie; you need a PA

[Can we also do variations of the word, such as anthropomorphic? or does it have to be the actual word?]

[OllieMartin]

I've already used variations of some of the previous words.
Anthopomorphism can definately be used as written because two grapes have already done it before this thread was even created!

[Pumpkin Becki]

I feel I've cheated somewhat now...
