Happy Aloha Wednesday • Hau’oli Aloha Po’akolu (pohah-koh-loo) Your word for today • Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious • From a song from the 1964 Disney musical film Mary Poppins. The song was written by the Sherman Brothers. The roots of the word have been defined as follows: super- above, cali- beauty, fragilistic- delicate, expiali- to atone, and -docious educable, with the sum of these parts signifying roughly Atoning for educability through delicate beauty. According to the film, it is defined as something to say when you have nothing to say.
