Now celebrating 30 fabulous years as the best and bestselling word calendar, "365 New Words-A-Year" is the perfect gift for writers, readers, students, crossword buffs, and etymology aficionados. On every page is a great new way to boost your everyday vocabulary. There are million-dollar words (paroemiologist: a student of proverbs), folksy words (thank-you-ma'am: a bump or depression in a road), and more. You're sure to avoid catachresis (use of the wrong word for the context), because each entry includes a definition, pronunciation, sample sentence, and detailed word history.
