Eldest Son had a spelling test in school today.
"how well do you think you did?" I asked him with interest.
"ok, except they asked us words that you will never find in a dictionary, and never use"
"like what?" I enquired.
"Psychoanalysis and mastication" he replied.
"err they are in the dictionary" I said.
"no they aren't I looked them up, and they are not there"
So to prove a point I looked them up and showed him.
"Oh well that is two I got wrong then", he says.
I have decided he needs to learn some new words to expand his vocabulary - perhaps I will direct him to Juzzy's word of the day
