I get two words emailed to me daily; one from dictionary.com and one from wordsmith.org.
Primaveral is today's word from dictionary.com: of the early springtime. I haven't heard the word before, but do know primavera (as in pasta.)
It's a great word for studying roots with my SAT students. But more importantly, it's a beautiful word. I have to write a poem around it.
Unfortunately, it's hard to feel springlike when I see snow on the lawns and the temperatures can't get out of the thirties.
