I haven’t even tried to get back in the word game I’ve been playing. The thought of writing an entire post with only five-syllable words makes me shudder.

But the Merriam-Webster’s Word of the Day made me think: if everyone just pronounces whatever words I use in the way that Bush pronounces words, we’ll be okay. In other words, I could have used the word “nuclear” in my three-syllable post.

Hm. That means I can totally use epenthesis in the five-syllable edition.
