LEXICOLOGY This branch of linguistics is about the application and signification of words. Mathematicians will say abstruse, and a geometrician will say obtuse. Hapax legomenoa (Greek) concerns words, as does hagiology. Good writers will avoid writing recombinant when they mean recombine. This presentation is about million dollar words—words that you are unlikely to hear in everyday speech. (Some of them you may not hear in your lifetime.) As such, this presentation is to increase your English vocabulary. Speakers and writers,who use some of these words, will astonish and perplex their listeners and readers. Usually, such erudition will establish or increase speakers’ and writers’ reputations. In addition, this presentation can just be fun.

This area is below the lithosphere (the area that extends to the surface, and includes the crust and outer layer of the mantle), and is the layer that is quick to yield to persistent stresses. If correct, on this layer, earthquakes begin.

If you did not eat at your usual time, borborygmus (noun, intestinal rumbling) will often result. This is because the human intestine establishes an alimentary rhythm. Foods and beverages that contain excessive gas will also cause borborygmus.

An unauthenticated example is the Mycenaeans dividing into the Athenians and Spartans.Mycenaeans
