I learnt the word affluent, it's basically another word for rich, i.e he's a very affluent person or only the affluent could afford to travel abroad. I'm trying to learn a new word every day since my vocab is very small.
“Who said that guidance requires there to be someone accompanying you"
I don't think I've learnt any new word today, unless if you count unintelligible gibberish by a 10 month-old nephew as words. As I've learnt today, "waaa waaa waaa" can mean "I'm hungry, where's my mummy", or "You suck uncle, that peekaboo of yours is so old, unfunny, not to mention lame".
That being said, My favorite word of today is "thingamabob" which is used to refer to something which you can't rememer the name of (similar to whatyamacallit).
loll.. Every day I hear of a new word in Gujarati.. I don't learn it cuz its ever so hard to remember.. :X

I have a new word for you. Conveyancing. This means to transfer property from one person to another.
I was looking at myself talking to myself and I realized this conversation...I was having with myself looking at myself was a conversation with myself that I needed to have with myself.
Hmmm... didn't actually learn a new word today but I remember one word I learnt a couple of years ago and it seemed like it was such a cool word: ostentatious. I'd try to use it as often as I could

if you contribute a word you must write down what it means
“Who said that guidance requires there to be someone accompanying you"
Ostentatious:
1.
characterized by or given to pretentious or conspicuous show in an attempt to impress others: an ostentatious dresser.
2.
(of actions, manner, qualities exhibited, etc.) intended to attract notice: Lady Bountiful's ostentatious charity.
^ so basically ostentatious means attracting attention, so if I were to say to someone, "you can't wear that it's too ostentatious" it would mean what they're wearing attracts too much attention? or if I said, "he's a very ostentacious person" that would mean a person who likes to attract attention and be noticed?
“Who said that guidance requires there to be someone accompanying you"
So if I sold a house the correct context would be, "I have to conveyance the house" which basically means transfer the house to another person
Well actually you are transferring the legal title of the property. I never used the term conveyancing that much. Can't believe I managed to pass the subject.
