Word Of The Day In English With Audio Part 7

Do you know Barghest from Acatalepsy, or that a Bacchante is a frenzied woman? Here at pennygifts we've decided to add an extra word to our vocabulary every day. It's not that we want to sound posh or clever, but we just think it would be fun to trot out the odd word and hear people say " what did you say. What on earth does that mean.?" We also think it might help when we are doing those crosswords while waiting for the train, or trying to get to grips with those quiz books. If you are a wordsmith, or you know someone who is, send them this penny gift. At least they won't be Banusic ( common, ordinary and undistinguished, dull or insipid)
