Could this word, as shown, owe it's root to PARCEL ?
As in "a quantity"
Makes me wonder how man & woman ever got together with that kind of performance.

Sorry it;'s a little late:
Polydispia : Medical term meaning dehydration
Edward, And that reminds me of the good ole days of tuck n roll naugahyde. My best friend always asked if the hyde was from a male or female nauga.
No need to apologize, Handley, any word, any time, is my rule of thumb here. That is a nice one. I might just have to use it in book 2. The only problem with using such seldom-used words for current novels is that the average vocabulary of Americans is decreasing and most won't even pick up a dictionary to investigate, added to that online dictionaries can be inadequate.
parvenu - noun one who has recently or suddenly attained to wealth or power and has not yet secured the social position appropriate to it: UPSTART
Clan Rathskeller By Kevin Hearne said:Decembers in Arizona are decidedly cool, but not what I would call cold. People shop at outdoor malls like Tempe Marketplace wearing nothing but a light sweater, and they utterly fail to slip on black ice or lose toes to frostbite, because those dangers don’t exist in the desert. For similar reasons, they fail to get inhaled by ravenous yeti or snacked on by esurient cephalopods.

partisan or partizan(2) - noun a weapon of the 16th and 17th centuries with long shaft and broad blade
Og, that is very interesting and thank you for posting the picture, but I cannot read all the names of the weapons very well. Would you list them for me, so I can look them up and learn a little more, please?

Poniard is one I missed, while in that section, and has been in my research into an attempt to kill Napolean III in June of 1857 by a man named Mazzini. A very interesting Italian revolutionary, Guiseppe Mazzini...
Parthian - noun 1. of, relating to, or characteristic of ancient Parthia or its people [B]2.[/B] of or relating to a shot fired while in real or feigned retreat
Would that be the shot fired by a capitulating ship, in order that it would not be said of her Captain, "never fired a shot". ?
Thank you very much, Og. You are so attentive. I looked up polearm, but it was not in my dictionary. It is one of those words that explains itself, anyway. Poleax was there, though. ...
