What is EMPFlix? No, it’s not Elizar Marcial Palad’s latest Flix or whatever.

EMPFlix is one of those hot words that many people have discovered and are searching for it in the world wide internet.

EMPFLix is a website, a video sharing website where in you can view and share an upload videos of you or someone you know or just about any video/movie/clips that you have to their website for everybody to view.

Now that is not much of a vocabulary building word because you can’t use it in everyday situations but it is still a word and a little trivia wont hurt does it?

So, at least starting today, you now know what and EMPFlix is… if you dig deeper though, you’ll know that EMPFlix is almost the same as the TNAFlix.

Of course that’s a different story.

Vocabulary building time folks! Tonight our word is “Bon Voyage”… This aint knew to me, and I know it’s not new to you too.

Bon Voyage is a french term used to express a good trip.

What is Bon Voyage?

Hello there! Me again… Are you hungry with knowledge already and can’t wait for another word of the day? Well, I’m sorry.. I haven’t read anything or see anything online that I can post here… So, no vocabulary building today.

All I want to say is Happy New Year to you all! And since it’s February before you know it, Happy Valentines Day too!

We’ve been spending our Christmas vacation here in the summer capital of the Philippines – Baguio City.

Tonight is our last night here and will be heading back home tomorrow mid-day… Anyway, here a new word for you further build your vocabulary – Transient.

I keep on readin transient here.. Room or House for rent or Transient or something.. That’s why I look it up and found the definition out:

What is “Transient”?

It has several definition on Google but the most accurate for my case:

“one who stays for only a short time; “transient laborers” “.

Here are some other definition:

# transeunt: of a mental act; causing effects outside the mind
# (physics) a short-lived oscillation in a system caused by a sudden change of voltage or current or load
# ephemeral: lasting a very short time; “the ephemeral joys of childhood”; “a passing fancy”; “youth’s transient beauty”; “love is transitory but it is eternal”; “fugacious blossoms”
In acoustics and audio, a transient is a short-duration signal that represents a non-harmonic attack phase of a musical sound or spoken word. It contains a high degree of non-periodic components and a higher magnitude of high frequencies than the harmonic content of that sound. …

We are going to the Philippines summer capital even though it’s December and the weather is cold… It’s alright, it’s a perfect way to celebrate the holiday with the family.

As I was updating my blog, I came across a news in Yahoo (yeah, I’m checking my email). I then updated my video blog with the news and stated my sadness.

So, in building our vocabulary tonight, our word is “Truce” which means, straightforwardly – a ceasefire. It is a cease fire between to opposing group in a hope or a chance to talk peace.

The news was about Israel and Gaza/Palestines.

Here are two definition of “Truce”:

# A ceasefire (or truce) is a temporary stoppage of a war or any armed conflict, where each side of the conflict agrees with the other to suspend aggressive actions. …

# a period of time in which no fighting takes place due to an agreement between the opposed parties; an agreement between opposed parties in which …

Today is the day after Christmas,,, yeah it’s December 26.. I was checking my Yahoo email when I got a glimpse of the terrible news… A man dressed up as Sanda crash to a christmas eve party and killed at least 6 people.. how sad was that..

I knew right then that this person had a personal problem… and it turns out its true.. He just underwent a horrific divorce experience:

Today’s word is Amicable… that’s everything their marriage was not. Amicable.

To qoute the police officer:

“It was not an amicable divorce,” police Lt. Pat Buchanan said…

So time to build that vocabulary.. here’s the definition of Amicable

# characterized by friendship and good will

# Showing friendliness or goodwill

# amicably – in an amicable manner; “they separated amicably”

# amicability – a disinclination to quarrel

# amicability – The state or quality of being amicable or friendly

# amicably – friendly; characterized by an absence of antagonism, especially in commonly difficult situations

# means “friendly and peaceable”, and is used to describe agreements or relationships between groups or people: After years of disagreement, the two countries came to an amicable agreement.

# agreed to, or prosecuted with the agreement of all parties, such as Amicable Revival of Judgment

I am currently (trying) to finish reading “The Talisman” by Stepehen King so I can start reading the other King book. This is the one I bought in Burnaby – Lisey’s Story.

While reading it last night I got this word – Don.

Instinctively, from childhood or from wherever, I know that ‘Don’ is a word used to denote someone with riches and power. And I know too that it is a spanish term… “a Spanish gentleman or nobleman ”

But the way Stpehen King used it in his book goes like… “..it’s like what children don in Halloween.” or something like that.

I did a definition search now (now that I have internet connection) and here’s what Mr. King meant by “Don”.

wear: put clothing on one’s body; “What should I wear today?”; “He put on his best suit for the wedding”; “The princess donned a long blue dress”; “The queen assumed the stately robes”; “He got into his jeans”

There you go, another word of the day just for you. Keep building that vocabulary ok?

God bless!

Yuoporn is the new vocabulary word of the day.. Although I recommend you put less attention to this one – yuoporn..

Yuoporn is the misspelled word for a popular video streaming website in the internet. It is actually quite popular even though yuoporn is the misspelled counterpart.

Anyway, consider this as another one of our non-sense word of the day that is totally useless, just like redtube and redtube vidios we posted here before… Yuoporn is not for everyone as you may have know by now. It is intended for viewers that knows what they’re looking for (yuoporn) and searching for)
