Abecedarian
Manage episode 282458060 series 2492929
Abecedarian is a noun that refers to someone who is beginning to learn something.
Our word of the day’s origin comes literally from the ABCs. It was initially used to refer to people learning the alphabet, so its first six letters are a loose approximation of A-B-C-D-E.
When it comes to bowling, Erica was an abecedarian, so I was patient with her unimpressive first few outings at the sport. After all, someone just learning the basics can’t be expected to perform well right away.
