365 New Words-A-Year is the perfect gift for students, crossword buffs, writers, wordsmiths, and language lovers. Every day, boost your vocabulary with a smart new word—including definition, pronunciation, sample sentence, and a detailed history. Here are hundreds of contemporary words (phishing), fun-to-say words (jackanapes), loans from other languages (schadenfreude), short, simple words (hew), and words that are a mouthful (bildungsroman). But every one is a good-to-know word. From the editors at Merriam-Webster, America's
most respected dictionary.
