There’s A Word For That (W4T) is for everyone from mere logophiles (people who love words) to those who suffer from epeolatry (the worship of words). Four out of five doctors agree that there is only one cure for that affliction: “Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind.” (Rudyard Kipling). Since “Some people have a way with words, and other people…oh, uh, not have way.” (Steve Martin) and “That’s what careless words do. They make people love you a little less.” (Arundhati Roy), W4T is really a public service. “Because even the smallest of words can be the ones to hurt you, or save you.” (Natsuki Takaya), maybe W4T will even save a life someday.
W4T is written by Debbie Foulkes, a writer and teacher who can often be found with her nose in a book doing research.
She has another blog about fascinating people who made headlines and then faded into obscurity at www.forgottennewsmakers.com
