You know how to use selfie and hashtag in your conversation. But do you know how to use caterwaul and obambulate? The Wayne State University Word Warriors wants us to start reusing some words that have been dropped from everyday language. For the seventh year in a row, the group compiled submissions from their web site at wordwarriors.wayne.edu into a list of words everyone should start using. "The English language has more words in its lexicon than any other," Jerry Herron, dean of WSU's Irvin D. Reid Honors College and a member of the website's editorial board, said. "By making use of the repertoire available to us, we expand our ability to communicate clearly and help make our world a more interesting place. Bringing these words back into everyday conversation is just another way of broadening our horizons."
