And as for modern usage relating to technology, how about that? I am really going to have to study this post and take in the new information. I love having a reason to use this wonderful word in multiple ways. How clever of you to look it up and study it as you did. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-21547577214120716022014-04-27T08:23:06.644-07:002014-04-27T08:23:06.644-07:00V was the letter I couldn't come up with for t...V was the letter I couldn't come up with for the challenge - I looked up SAT words that begin with V - it was fun learning a couple of new words and finally truly understanding a couple of other V word definitions.
