Our Featured Word from the Vault is: liturgy
Articles, determiners, and quantifiers are those little words that precede and modify nouns:
the teacher, a college, a bit of honey, that person, those people, whatever purpose, either way, your choiceSometimes these words will tell the reader or listener whether we're referring to a specific or general thing (the garage out back; A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!); sometimes they tell how much or how many (lots of trees, several books, a great deal of confusion).
We revel in the beauty of words and we want to share that with you. Julie Karasik and Colin O'Malley started Vocab Vitamins in 2000, creating a vocabulary learning tool high on fun, low on condescension.
