The Daily Word for March 30, 2021

 

sialoquent - adj. - spraying spit while talking


Ha! Never in my wildest dreams did I think there was an adjective for speakers who coat their listeners with saliva. With COVID permeating the atmosphere, this sort of thing might just become illegal anyway. And surely if you wear a mask and are normally sialoquent, the lining of said mask will only wind up very damp and very uncomfortable. And the moisture might even produce a facial rash, which would be motivation enough to curb the tendency. I have to admit, though, I can't come up with any anecdotes related to this word since not one messy orator comes to mind. Do you know anyone who is sialoquent? Ergo, this is going to be a brief entry today. I hope you don't mind. 

Happy Tuesday!!!!!
