logophilius: Saving Civilization by Destroying It
http://logophilius.blogspot.com/2015/08/saving-civilization-by-destroying-it.html
Monday, August 10, 2015. Saving Civilization by Destroying It. I'm a big fan of dystopian fiction, novels in which civilization as we know it has been supplanted by something more oppressive and sinister. Often, the new order of things follows an apocalyptic event, but often enough, we don't know how a particular fictional world came to be. That's one of the joys of fiction: building a world entirely from scratch. Let the world know your love for words. On Fiction and Truth. Logophilius around the Intern...

logophilius: New Word Wednesday: tumulus
http://logophilius.blogspot.com/2015/07/new-word-wednesday-tumulus.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2015. New Word Wednesday: tumulus. A tumulus is more tumorous (or even tumescent) than tumultuous, so there's no reason to raise a ruckus about it.

Tumor, tumescent,. And tumulus —. 8212; all come from or are related to the Latin tumere,. Is a more common synonym for tumulus,. The aged s...
