Word of the Day - 3/7
I hope everyone had an excellent weekend! As I said on Friday, TBurt'll be out this week, so I'm taking guest submissions for word of the day photos. Today's is courtesy of GTate--so three cheers for GTate! (this is a webcam view of the Grand Canyon from the South Rim at 7:30 A.M.)
You guys might guess that I have quite a bit of faith in language--in its capacity to communicate, enlighten, beaufity--to do all sorts of things. Every once in awhile however, I come accross something that just makes me stop talking--so the word of the day is:
Ineffable: Ineffable simply refers to something that one is unable to communicate with words (such as ineffable joy, ineffable beauty). I like to think that we most frequently find things to be ineffable when there is already joy, beauty, and (maybe most importantly) understanding within that which we're trying to communicate--it's not so much that we have nothing to add by speaking about those things, but rather that those things simply speak for themselves.
Have a wonderful day everyone...
