Word of the Day

elegiacLet's Get Serious Word of the Day:This adjective has a value-added quality: a sound pattern not all similar to its underlying noun elegy, which is already a not-so-familiar word. The noun means a mournful or serious poem; the adjective doesn't mean much more than "like an elegy," but lit critics give it a pretty good workout to characterize serious writing that has a poetic quality.
