Welcome to the Guess My Word blog. This is a place to discuss the words of the day chosen by Joon and Mike. This paragraph is here mostly as spoiler space. Here are today's words:

mike's word: eking
joon's word: catharsis

Discuss.

  1. Was this a random word because Mike's stack is depleted? Surprising to see this form of the word. Fortunately I couldn't come up with anything between eke and elaborate. (I subsequently looked up ekka and ekistics but don't know if they're in the list, or what else might be there.)

    1. it is not a random word, but i have no idea why mike chose it. between eke and elaborate i tried el first and then was forced to guess eking next.

      although i wouldn't have been able to pull it, i have heard of ekistics, and it is in the world list. neither is true of ekka.

  2. wow. first 'cathartic' but not catharsis, and then several forms of 'eke' before the rather moldy 'eking.' Isn't 'eking' the sound you make grinding your teeth?
