Friday's "Word of the Day"

Today's word is natter. If you are old enough to remember Spiro Agnew, you may recall his somewhat famous quote when he called the press "nattering nabobs of negativity". Besides it being a great use of alliteration, you got two great words out of it, nattering and nabob. While a nabob is an important person, to natter is to talk excessively about unimportant things.

Now go and review the words of the week. The test will be posted later today.
