Daily Vocabulary - FOUR TIMES THE POWER!!!!
Well, since I've been slacking (not really, actually I have been exceptionally busy), I am going to do something outrageous and brain-burstingly clever, and combine not one, not two, not three, but FOUR!!! FOUR!!!! Vocabulary words into one posting. Yeah, you better make that seatbelt click.
1. wedging - v. The action of driving in a wedge or wedges, or of fixing or cleaving by this means; the condition of being thus fixed.
2. roast meat - n. Meat cooked by roasting.
3. diddly-squat - n. As a count noun: a thing of little value or significance; esp. in not to give a diddly-squat. As a mass noun: nothing at all; (in negative constructions) anything. Cf. doodly-squat
4. tampion - n. A plug for stopping an aperture: e.g. a bung for a cask, etc.
Example: I didn't have diddly-squat to do with wedging that roast meat in the bung hole, but it made a mighty fine tampion though, didn't it?
YEAH!!!!
