Abecedarian

It was only a matter of time before I got around to defining my favorite words. Never mind thatI can't figure out a way to use my favorite words in a daily conversation. But we won't pay that any mind.

Today's word is abecedarian! I personally would like to spell this word without the first "e" thus making it abcedarian. Or we could do away with the e's all together but then that would lend itself to a conversation about how I would like to change spelling rules and the grammatical structure and content of the English language. Since this is Monday we shall save that for another day.

Back to abecedarian, a noun of course, meaning~

1. a person who is learning the letters of the alphabet.

2. a beginner in any field of learning. –adjective

3. of or pertaining to the alphabet.

4. arranged in alphabetical order.

5. rudimentary; elementary; primary.

Thank you www.dictionary.com for those definitions.

Now if I can just figure out a way to work this word into my daily conversation let alone use it in a sentence! Have a great week abecedarians!
