12 Words Every Writer Should Know and Use
Houghton Mifflin publishes a popular book called 100 Words Every High School Graduate Should Know. While perusing the list, there are numerous words I’d have to ask someone to use in a sentence for me because I know I don’t use them in everyday language and I have no idea what they mean. There are exquisite words like gerrymander, lugubrious, obsequious, quotidian, and usurp. You can read the entire list for yourself by clicking on the title above, but if you love words like I do then be sure to grab your dictionary first! Senior editor Steven Kleinedler states, “If you are able to use these words correctly, you are likely to have a superior command of the language.”
