It’s nice to have back-up authors when you’re in a pinch. (Thank you, Son) Today is “Doctor Day,” and we sisters shall be wrapping up our chores around the homestead. So, it’s fitting that my friend from the Holmestead be our guest contributor today.
I found this fascinating, because I did not know the word, “contronym.” What was most fascinating, is that I spent parts of yesterday trying to find other words that would fit this category. Analyzing your thoughts and words can be rather annoying, and listening for a contronym mind-numbing. However, if you have one, send in your findings and receive a free year’s subscription to heyrenejtoday.com!
How about “toast?”
So happy to guest host while you are tending to the homestead! 🐝
Hi Rene, just read your contronym piece and thought it was unique; I’ll try to tuck it in my memory brain. See you in September. Love June
