Word of the day

Today's word is EXIGUOUS.

Exiguous [ig-ZIG-yuh-wus] adjective: excessively scanty: inadequate

Example:
The store clerk saw her right as she walked in the door in her exiguous outfit and decided since there were around it might be a good idea that someone stop her and tell her to put more clothes on. As it turned out they had to call security and have her taken away because she refused to cover up her exposed body so that the in the store didn't see anything they shouldn't.

Did you know?
"Exiguous" is so expansive sounding that you might expect it to mean "extensive" instead of "meager." Even a scanty glimpse at the word's etymology will disabuse you of that notion, however. "Exiguous" derives from the Latin "exiguus," which has the same basic meaning as the modern English term. "Exiguus," in turn, derives from the Latin verb "exigere," which is variously translated as "to demand," "to drive out," or "to weigh or measure." The idea of weighing or measuring so precisely as to be parsimonious or petty gave "exiguous" its present sense of inadequacy. Just so we aren't accused of being skimpy with the details, we should also mention that "exigere" is the parent term underlying other English words including "exact" and "exigent."

Sorta busy tonight doing some writings. Hope y'all had a fabulous hump day!
