I fell behind in reading posts, so I'm just getting through Feb's posts. One thing I love about this group is its international flavor. One thing I admire about Europeans is their command of multiple languages. So much so that I just learned a new word in my native language from a (I presume) non-native-English speaker. I read this post and said to myself "tergiversate -- that's not an English word." My husband agreed, but I looked it up in good old Webster and what do you know, there it is right between "tergite" and "tergiversation." I love it! Now if I can just figure out a way to use it in casual conversation :~)
