Have you ever used any of these words?


The only two I don't think I've ever heard used (or read) are these three:

Word of the Day #1
ker·fuf·fle / kərˈfəfəl / noun / INFORMAL•BRITISH = a commotion or fuss, especially one caused by conflicting views.  Example:  "There was a kerfuffle over who was in charge."
Word of the Day #2
din·gle·ber·ry / ˈdiNGəlˌberē / noun / INFORMAL•US = a foolish or inept person.  Example:  "He's a real dingleberry."
Word of the Day #3
cods·wal·lop / ˈkädzˌwäləp / noun / INFORMAL•BRITISH = nonsense.  Example:  "I think that's a load of codswallop."
I love dark pumpernickel bread, like this.  Have you ever eaten any?
