On the way to school today, my daughter asked a funny question: 

Is there another word for "hiccup"? (also spelled "hiccough")

I thought for a while, but I couldn't think of a synonym for hiccup. My daughter is fascinated by words and wordplay and has asked for a traditional hardcover dictionary (the big fat kind) for Christmas.

The most interesting case is being rewarded.

Why not read it again?

I consulted a grammar book again when I was trying to find an answer to a question this morning - it's been a long time since I last read the book. When I was looking through its table of contents, I found I needed to read some of its items again because I wasn't so sure if I really understood them, or rather some of the entries were so unfamiliar to me now even though I had read them more than once.

Yes, people forget things, and repetition seems to be one of the most effective ways to learn. So

Share Your Favorite Christmas Song

Christmas is in the air.  Burrrrr...and I'm freezing!  I especially love this season of the year not only because of the cold weather but also because I get to listen again and again to those sweet Christmas carols.  I believe that the spirit of Christmas is incomplete without the Christmas music playing wherever we go.  So I thought we can all spread this joyful season here on EC by sharing and listening to each other's favorite Christmas song.  

I'd love it if you would please post here your al
