She came here last year, all alone. She’s an emancipated kid…

Tha’t the whole line that I heard (well at least that’s what I remembered) from the dialogue of the villain character in tonight’s episode of Supernatural.

Sam and Dean battles a century old witch that sacrifices people (3) to resurrect Samhain or Samhein, the Halloween man.

Anyway, here’s what Emancipate, means.. From the example sentence, it looks like it has something to do with self reliance and independence… Let’s consult Google….

Emancipate means, ;To free from bondage or involuntary servitude… Right! at least there the work ‘free from’ in there… Servitute may be another entry but I guess my guess is right.

Another good definition is give equal rights to; of women and minorities. Right again!

Now I get it… did you get it? Hope you use it as often chance you get.. Goodluck!

Recuperate is when you’re sick and you stay at home or in a hospital to get well. Basically, Recuperate is to get well…

Let’s take this Business Mirror article about Eraserheads’ vocalist Ely Buendia… “spent about a week in the hospital and a month-and-a-half at home recuperating”.

That’s self explanatory isn’t it? If you may recall, Ely Buendia was underwent another unblocking of artery after he was rushed from a one night Eraserheads reunion concert last AUgust 31, 2008.

He was at the hospital getting better… or should we say recuperating.. nice! Apply and use the word to retain in memory.

Good luck!

Our new word for the day today is not really a word, it’s a phrase and an idiom (idiomatic expression)

I was watching FRIENDS awhile ago “The One WIth The Truth About London” epidose. This is the one where Rachel babysits Ross’ son, Ben. This is where Rachel accidentally teaches Ben a thing or two naugthy things…

That’s when Ross comes knocking and says:

I have a bone to pick with you.

Bone To Pick is an idiomatic expression that means a small disagreement, or in this example, it is more appropriately defined as a discussion of something that needs to be talked out… So ‘a bone to pick with someone’ means ‘a small disagreement with someone’.

And finally, my best vote for the best definition:

something to investigate, or to busy one’s self about; a dispute to be settled (with some one).

Update:

This “Bone To Pick” was also used in the movie “The Lion King” where the hyenas confront Scar that they have a ‘bone to pick’ with him and that they don’t have anything to eat.

This new word, Blunt, is once again taken from last night’s show, Heroes episode 7 of Season 3 – Eris Quod Sum.

I heard Arthur Petrelli says this to Sylar when the two of the are talking (and Peter got away)… “you are a blunt weapon”… or something like that.

You’re probably laughing, and yeah… I thought that was a complement or something but it turns out, after searching about ‘blunt’ in the internet, it meant quiet the opposite..

It means dull or in using the word with a knife or blade, a used one. Or make less sharp; “blunt the knives” something like that.

ALright, now I have an idea more or less… Blunt.

Eris Quod Sum is Latin for “I am What you will Be”.. it’s like my “Tempus Fugit” post way way way back in time.. which means “Time Flies” by the way.

Anyway, Eris Quod Sum, was tonight’s Heroes episode. Their 7th Epidose of the 3rd season.

How can we remember that phrase? I don’t know… let us associate..

Eris — QUod — SUm, I am What You will Be.. I can’t find any relationship.. hehehe, I guess I just have to remember.

Ah, yes. This is my official first post. My new word for my oh so tiny vocabulary is DECORUM.

After I bought my Guitar Hero 4: Word Tour complete band game, I put the laundry on the machine and turn on the TV.

I saw a variation of some Tarzan of the Apes movie… Here’s the qoute from the dialog from the movie:

“Put on some clothes boy. It’s the rule here. Have a little sense of decorum“

I wasn’t able to finish the movie… i got bored..

Anyway, I did a quick googel search about Decorum and here’s what I got:

Definitions of decorum on the Web:
