Title

No new posts yet today?? It looks as if most people post in the afternoons anyway. So being that I'm the first to post today... today's word is "truncation" Now, if you don't want to know the actual definition of this word... don't continue reading this post or look it up at dictionary.com or in a normal dictionary. I just happen to be sitting at a computer in BYUs Harold B. Lee Library and looking at a little reference thing they have so that people don't have to go and stop the workers from getting paid to do their homework. It says "Truncation Symbols will help you with your search of periodicals. Truncation is the shorteningof a word to broaden your search, e.g. gene* gives you gene(s), genetic(s), general." Now isn't that exciting. Okay, so not really, but you just read it and found it highly entertaining, or at least slightly amusing.

Have a HAPPY WEDNESDAY!

Love,
T
