So, I have Dictionary.com send me a 'Word of the Day' every day. Many of them I already know, some are pretty dull, but you still get awesome words quite often. :D This one is definitely up in the top now:
"flibbertigibbet \FLIB-ur-tee-jib-it\, noun:
A silly, flighty, or scatterbrained person, especially a pert young woman with such qualities."
I'm using that. So totally using that, somewhere, in something.

I saw that and was going to tell you about it. Then I remembered that you got the Word of the Day XD
ReplyDeleteDo you get that too, or did you just see it?
ReplyDeleteIt sure makes that song the nuns sing in The Sound of Music make more sense, huh? xD
I wonder what the masculine word for this is. . . or, rather, what a guy who is "silly, flighty, or scatterbrained, especially a pert young man with such qualities" is called.
ReplyDeletexD You're free to try and find it, or just call your brothers flibbertigibbets anyways, since it doesn't /have/ to be a girl. ;)
