Word of the day

Daub - n. A painting executed without much skill

The brief separation of Mary and Mr Hayward and the their reunion was executed well. It gave Mary time to reflect and realize her blossoming feelings.

Word of the day

Aphorism - n. A pithy observation that contains a general truth (ex if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it)
