Word of the day
Word of the day Today's word is CONVALESCE. Convalesce [kahn-vuh-LESS] verb: to recover health and strength gradually after sickness or weakness Example: According to the article, the athlete is still convalescing from her recent injury but expects to resume her training schedule by the end of the month. Did you know? When you convalesce, you heal or grow strong after illness or injury, often by staying off your feet. (The related adjective "convalescent" means "recovering from sickness or debility," and a "convalescent home" is a hospital for long-term recuperation and rehabilitation.) The word "convalesce" derives from Latin, from the prefix "com-" ("with, together, jointly") and the verb "valescere" ("to grow strong"). "Valescere," in turn, is related to the verb "valēre" ("to be strong or be well"), which is also an ancestor of "prevail," "valor," "value," and "valid."
