Publisher's Synopsis
• This salient word calendar demonstrates the appropriate use of a year's worth of indispensible words to help readers appear erudite, articulate, and highly literate • Adams Media's Words You Should Know series has sold more than 250,000 copies! Readers can lock academic horns with the clerisy--and be the life of every highbrow cocktail party--with this most compendious of calendars. Mastering this daily listing of deliciously obscure and obtuse terms will have readers tossing about bon mots with the best of the portentous artistes and aesthetes--and impressing the susurration out of the perfervid hoi polloi--in no time!
