We are in week six of our Word Window series in which we display an Oxford Word of the Week, culled from The Oxford English Dictionary in the windows in front of our NYC office on Madison between 34th and 35th street.
Last week’s word was: Entheogen n.: A psychoactive substance which is used in a religious ritual or to bring about a spiritual experience, typically a plant or fungal extract; (more widely) any hallucinogenic drug.
In case you aren’t in NYC or didn’t get a chance to walk by the office here is what it looked like:
This week’s word is: Nugatory.
Stop by the window to see its definition or check back on the blog next week!
I think you mean you are displaying the word of the week in the “windows,” not “widows” in front of your NYC office. Though that certainly is a poignant thought. :-)
We all make mistakes- thanks for pointing this one out!
