I think when you read a lot, you do develop a good vocabulary. Sometimes I test myself to see if I really do know that meaning of a word that I think I do. Most of the time I do.

I love to look up places that I read about. It is even more fun when you are able to visit a place that you've read about!

Here's my MM:

I have small dictionaries in every room but don't use them as often, now that my Nook has a dictionary built-in. But I agree with you, it has been awhile since I had to look words up.

2012-05-28T08:57:05.175-04:00

I only look up words when i am reading my Kindle (because it will do it in an instant). Otherwise I just figure it out by context. What I do look up are places, like you, and what people look like if it is a true story. See that is why it takes me so long to get through a non-fiction story...I get sucked in!

spectacular!

I like to look up cities as well and see if they are real places. When I look up words, I use my dictionary.com app on my phone! http://whatsontheshelf.wordpress.com/2012/05/28/musing-monday-11/

2012-05-28T08:08:59.652-04:00

I do look up words with an old fashioned dictionary but not always the moment I see the unfamiliar word. Quite often, I can figure out what it means from the context but will look it up later just to confirm it.

Caite: Once again, thank you. I look forward to visiting on Mondays since I alwasy find your MM response quite entertaining and that puts a smile on my face. Sorry for the misspelling but I haven't had my 2nd cup of coffee yet, but think you will get the gist from the context lol.

2012-05-28T03:46:24.450-04:00

I love it! I thought I was the only one who has to go look up the names of towns and find out all the neat-o facts about them whether they're real or made up.I love traveling but who can do that with gas the way it is. Shew!
Anywho, here's my little corner of the world to give my answer: http://www.composingcat.com/2012/05/musing-mondays.html

BTW: I own SEVERAL real live hard back and paper back dictionaries...actually I like to collect them...the older ones. There's just something about flipping through the pages looking for a word while your finger scans from line to line and word to word. I agree with you...there's just nothing like flipping the pages of a book whether it's the dictionary or on the hunt for a map.

I think she was not feeling her best...and then there was that little white dog following her all around.

Just to kiss her..just to kiss her, of course.

2012-05-26T18:57:26.532-04:00

what, you have not heard of Lidia!! she is on PBS..owns several restaurants..cooked lunch for the Pope when her was in the USA.
Her last show was all about different regions in Italy and this one one, Italian cooking in the US.
Her elderly mom and her son (owns a winery) and daughter (she is some sort or art historian or something) drop in. Love the grandmother...

Looks soooo good. Thanks and have a great week.
