Never Know What You Might Find...

I decided to broaden my vocabulary the other day and was perusing the Webster's Dictionary. I was very surprised to see some pictures that were associated with some words there. Look at some of what I found!


First, I decided to look up:

ador·able
Pronunciation: \ə-ˈdȯr-ə-bəl\
Function: adjective
1 : worthy of being adored
2 : extremely charming



Well, yes, I would say Shimmer is adorable. How nice that Mr. Webster thinks so also!

Next, I looked up:

pre·cious
Pronunciation: \ˈpre-shəs\
Function: adjective
1 : of great value or high price
2 : highly esteemed or cherished


Imagine that! Yep! Breezy is very precious.


This was getting amazing! How did my girls' pictures end up in the dictionary...????


Finally, I went to:

di·va
Pronunciation: \ˈdē-və\
Function: noun
1: Italian, literally, goddess, from Latin, feminine of divus divine, god
2 : a usually glamorous and successful female performer or personality




Oh yeah, they hit THAT one right on!
You never know what you will find when you read!
Have a great day!
