SaveTheWords.org

Being a copywriter, you probably assumed that I love words. Well, you guessed right. Of course, French is my first love, but I am very found of English as well. I discovered this website developed by Oxford Dictionaries, and encourage you to go once in a while.

Which words need to be saved? Old words, wise words, those that has lost their meaning in our lives.

Look around, click, discover, learn, have fun. Some words are even asking for your attention. If you fall in love, you can adopt a word and make a pledge to use it as much as you can.

How can you do “spread the word”? Use it as a name for your pet, or a nickname for your partner; play it at your next Scrabble game; get a tattoo with the word; draw a graffiti, what else?

Mine: hymnicide. Killing of hymns through alteration. So be careful if you sign around me!
