Writings about Ataxia, being DeafBlind, family life. The best life can offer!


Craig’s WD #9

Today’s word of the day is…

August

Yes, this word is one of three month names that has a different meaning.

I’ll let you figure out the other two.

This is how I would use august: Years ago, I had an august Humanities professor during my last semester at SFU. He was extremely well versed on almost every religion, he was an ordained, abet retired, catholic priest, he was very knowledgeable…”

From that paragraph, you should determine that august means respected or impressive.

But, saying that your libido is august… that is just weird! Haha!

Thank you for reading!
