Enkindle
Manage episode 286694881 series 2492929
Enkindle is a verb that means to set on fire.
Coming from Middle English, our word of the day could be thought of as a more literary variation of the word ‘kindle.’ It may come in handy when searching for a more romantic or sentimental word and ‘kindle’ just won’t do. For example: I told Veronica that she would soon enkindle my heart, but my phrasing didn’t have the effect I was seeking. It only sent her scrambling for a dictionary.
