Hey buddy, have ya got a dime?
Go ahead. Pull it out of your pocket or purse
and take a good look at it. Then drop it in an envelope and mail it to … just
kidding!
Oh, is the dime too small to see easily
without your glasses? No matter, a quarter, nickel, any coin will do; just admire its
design and know that it has been …
INCUSED (in kyōōzʹ)
adj. – forged with a hammer; hammered
or stamped in: said of the design on a coin. n. – such a design. [WW #129]
While the numismatists (coin collectors) may know the word, incused may not have
yet made it into your daily vocabulary. However, given our penchant for competitiveness
and always planning ways to one-up our friends, feel free to incuse
your writing with designing thoughts, and astonish your friends at the next party.
Write first for
yourself … only then can you write for others. (L.Rochelle)
