I asked Martijn for help and his solution was to start adding F to the beginning of every word instead of what it really begins with. I'm a little embarrassed to feature how completely immature we can be sometimes... but we started to get the giggles when many of the words started sounding like "fart" at the beginning.
Since that obviously wasn't a good solution, I turned to the dictionary and found a few fascinating words to share today. Some of these I was already familiar with but there are some good new ones too!
flabbergast: to overwhelm with shock, surprise, or wonder
flotsam: floating wreckage from a ship OR useless or discarded objects
foreboding: an omen, prediction, or presentiment especially of coming evil
frangible: readily or easily broken
frowst: stifling warmth in a room
fubsy: chubby and somewhat squat
fuddy-duddy: one that is old-fashioned
and my favorite-
flapdoodle: nonsense
Well that's it for this week. Mrs. Matlock, I hope you won't FAIL me for this foolish flapdoodle.
