Word of the Day…well, word of *A* day
We missed this by almost a week, but November 22’s World of the Day on Merriam Webster Online used an example from one of Jane Austen’s novels.
feign - FAYN - verb
1 : to give a false appearance of : induce as a false impression
2 : to assert as if true : pretendExample sentence:
“Had Edward been intentionally deceiving her? Had he feigned a regard for her which he did not feel?” (Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility)
We apologize for the lack of content lately; it’s been a slow news week, perhaps because of the long holiday weekend in the U.S. (Happy Thanksgiving to our U.S. readers!)
