Word of the Day


Why do we only use the word "profusely" in very limited circumstances.

Basically, it's "He bled profusely" or "He apologized profusely".

It's a fun word. It deserves more recognition. Come on people, let's mix things up a bit.

From now on, "He talked profusely", instead of "incessantly".

"He lies profusely" instead of "like a rug".

"We are going out profusely" instead of "until the wee hours of the morning".

"You can diet profusely" instead of "until the cows come home", "but you'll never be a size 4."

Make up a profuse amount of your own.
