Happy National Grammar Day!



I totally forgot to tell my students it was National Grammar Day. Grrr. We could have had so much fun with it. What kind of word dork/grammar geek am I?

In honor or NGD, tell me your favorite word. Mine is "gazebo" with "coagulate" taking a close second. C'mon - you know you want to...
