Say WHAT?!

Have you ever read something so unbelievable that you just had to scratch your head and say, “WHAT?!”

Did you know that the average native English speaker has a vocabulary of about 20,000 words? However, in everyday speaking and writing, such as emails, notes and letters, this drops down to about 5,000 very common words that are used over and over and over.

To help combat the repetitive lexicon doldrums, these fun little tidbits are designed to get you thinking (about something other than your problems) and possibly inspire you to augment your verbal horizons and be slightly more inquisitive about seemingly mundane things. Not to mention, be prepared with a plethora of ice breakers for your next social gathering.

WARNING: The details of the WHAT?! Facts have intentionally been omitted. Hopefully, this will provoke you to research the topic and earn a WHAT?! Master’s degree with your erudition of useless information.
