...but I just received my "Word of the Day" from dictionary.com...

-------------------------------
Word of the Day for Friday, March 6, 2009

martial \MAHR-shuhl\, adjective:

suitable or used for war; warlike
-------------------------------

I find it interesting that one flip of a couple letters, and you have the word "marital".

Diet has the word die in it.

Dysfunctional has the word fun in it.

Sinister originally meant someone who was left-handed.

Ooh, neat.

Well, if you are going to bring that up Kimmeee, why isn't it (W) "double V", versus "double U"?

Is it because they are closest to each other in the alphabet? Gosh all these questions. Where are our Grammar Mavens? I am getting a head ache! LMAO.
