100 Day Challenge: Words #19

We’re almost at the end! Here’s episode 19 (days 91 to 95), the penultimate summary of my 100 day challenge to find words I don’t know. I’m scraping words from https://randomword.com/ and each day picking one that I find interesting and which is also in the OED.

Day Date Word Meaning
91 Thursday 30 January tonitruone ** musical instrument that imitates sound of thunder
92 Friday 31 January sponsalia espousals, marriage
93 Saturday 1 February rhopalic verse in which each word contains one syllable more than the preceding one
94 Sunday 2 February corbeau a dark green colour verging on black
95 Monday 3 February rulley flat four-wheeled wagon for carrying goods

** My favourite of the words presented.

The final episode on Sunday!
