Word of the day
Word of the day Today's word is DOOZY. Doozy [DOO-see] noun: an extraordinary one of its kind Example: He was a quiet shy man but seemed to have a following of women who were always calling him. It intrigued her and she finally relented and went on a date with him. When they kissed goodnight she realized as their tongues were dancing that he was a doozy of a kisser and was left breathless and panting. She was also wondering what other talents he had with his tongue and wanted to find out. Did you know? While it's often maintained that the word "doozy" derives from the "Duesenberg" in the name of the famed Duesenberg Motor Company, this is impossible on chronological grounds. "Doozy" was first recorded (in the form "dozy") in eastern Ohio in 1916, four years before the Duesenberg Motor Company began to manufacture passenger cars; the related adjective "doozy," meaning "stylish" or "splendid," is attested considerably earlier, in 1903. So where did "doozy" come from? Etymologists believe that it's an altered form of the word "daisy," which was used especially in the late 1800s as a slang term for someone or something considered the best. Funny that I usually hear this word or use this word myself to sort of make fun of things. Like he's a doozy, meaning he's a winner...NOT. So I hope y'all have been good. I've been super busy it seems but I guess it keeps me outta trouble Anyway hope everyone had a super day! |
