Dictionary.com Word of the Day - cerise: moderate to deep red
When and Where: I found this word through my Nazareth email account. I was checking my email and I noticed above the inbox that it gave me a word and a definition, which I found intriguing. I had never noticed this before. I went back later to check and see if there is always a word there but it varies from news to words to other random tid bits.
What it Means: According to the definition provided, it means moderate to deep red.
In Context: While the girl went apple picking, she notice an apple that was so shiny and cerise, it stood out among the other red apples.
Level of Familiarity: Until Nazareth email enlightened me with this definition, I had never heard of this before.
Reflective Commentary: While I do not seeing myself dropping this new word in every sentence, unless perhaps I'm apple picking or it's Valentine's Day, I can myself using this word again. This would be a good word to teach kids to using when they are writing, especially if they are trying to describe an object that is cerise.
