物の哀れ Mononoaware- is "the pathos of things." It is the awareness of the impermanence of all things and the gentle sadness and wistfulness at their passing.

Simple, really: Just state your word of the day. Pick a word, any word, obscure or not. Modern or archaic. Just remember to explain why it's the word of the day, and what it means.



Thank you, Roland, for your word of the day, AND to have explained it. I love that!

So come on, please, people, the basic thread requirement isn't demanding or complicated.

Explain why it's the word (your) word of the day, and what it means.

We're writers, write? Right?

Words are our stock in trade, let's follow the thread requirement. We'll all be enriched by doing so.

Mine is tenacious.

It means holding fast, persistent, stubborn or obstinate. Also holding together; cohesive; not easily pulled asunder; tough.

Why is it my word of the day?

Because being tenacious is part of being a writer, in my opinion, in order to hold fast, be persistent, and most certainly, hold together, be cohesive, not be pulled asunder.

In other words, to be a better writer.
