Okay, okay, I was born in you, I’m sorry … but hey… you are really really gray, man! Anyway, it’s December now, the awesome/trippy WordPress snow is back in and I though this year we could do an advent calendar. And what better to hide behind the door than chocolate? Exactly… one million dollars. Or some German vocab :). Seriously though… those of you who have been around for a while know that I am working on a book. Yup. Still. I don’t know when it’ll be done, but it’s much “doner” than last year and so I thought it’s time for another peek. The book will be about prefixes (yeah, sounds boring but it really isn’t) and one part of it will be an Explictionary…. a dictionary with the most common prefix verbs WITH explanations and examples. And instead of just having it sit on my hard drive we might just as well just have a look at it right now – one prefix verb a day :).
