Product Description
365 New Words-A-Year is the perfect gift for students, crossword buffs, writers, wordsmiths, and language lovers. Every day, boost your vocabulary with a smart new word—including definition, pronunciation, sample sentence, and a detailed history. Here are hundreds of contemporary words (phishing), fun-to-say words (jackanapes), loans from other languages (schadenfreude), short, simple words (hew), and words that are a mouthful (bildungsroman). But every one is a good-to-know word. From the editors at Merriam-Webster, America's
most respected dictionary.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, March 14, 2011

We had hoped for a calendar full of good SAT/ACT words, but instead have a calendar with only a portion of its words satisfying this goal, and the rest being overly obscure from our perspective. Perhaps a verbivore would love them, but this is not all that useful to our kids as a source of good "word of the day" words to build their vocabulary of "essential" words.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great spelling help, April 8, 2011

My daughter is hoping to go to a national spelling bee next year, and has begun to study for it. I bought her this calendar as a way to learn new words. I was pleased to realize that the words are chosen from the Merriam-Webster dictionary, which is the official spelling bee dictionary. We are enjoying learning new words together, and we find the etymology information on the backs of the pages especially helpful.

Keep this calendar near your computer at work and you'll have a great reminder for what day it is, plus some extra knowledge. Awesome product for people who want to expand their vocabulary!
