Words from Todays Newspaper: Word#2 of the day: FECUND The Magus of magical realism, Gabriel Garcia Marquez - who died on Thursday at his home in Mexico City, at the age of 87 — used his fecund imagination and exuberant sleight of hand to conjure the miraculous in his fiction: plagues of insomnia and forgetfulness, a cluster of magical grapes containing the secret of death, an all-night rain of yellow blossoms, a swamp of lilies oozing blood, a Spanish galleon marooned in a Latin American jungle, cattle born bearing the brand of their owner. [The sentence given above has been taken from todays newspaper (dated: April 26, 2014)]. In the above-cited sentence, the adjective ‘fecund’ is used to describe someone who is innovative or intellectually very productive. Literally, the word ‘fecund’ means producing, or capable of producing, an abundance of offsprings or new growth; highly fertile. The word originates from the Latin word ‘fecundus’, which means fruitful. Interested in CLs products, to know more check here: bit.ly/1mtyHYR
