Save the Words

This post is something I think my sister, Kris, would enjoy. Thanks to the New Dork Review of Books, I clicked on the link and discovered you could save a word that has been disappearing from the English language. The trick is to use it constantly in your everyday conversations. How fun would that be, but at my job I would just get very strange looks. I think some of my other family members would benefit from it more than I would. Check it out:

If I said leeftail in conversation, I would get some strange looks. (It means in great demand).

Like: "The night vision goggles in Black Friday's ad were leeftail." Yeah, doesn't sound very intellectual at my place of business.
