"What's the word?" is a series where I share the new words and their definitions I’ve learned throughout life. I write these definitions and pronunciations in a way that makes them easy for me to remember while still staying true to their meaning. If any words stand out to you, or if you have a word of your own, feel free to send it my way or drop it in the comments!
