Way Behind....

on Word Of The Day!!!!!

Today it is a medical term for those random belly noises that rumble around inside your abdomen. I like this word because when you say it you can imagine that it resembles the sounds it describes.

Borborygmus.

Ha, ha... say that 10 times fast in your best Mr Bean voice. Borborygmus!!

Yeah, the things you come across. I suppose there has to be a name for everything, doesn't there??

I know there is a name for those words as well - sound like what they describe. Must get on the hunt for that to share.
