Word of the Day - Delectation

[debodun]

Delectation (noun) - enjoyment, pleasure or delight.

For your delectation, a spread of delicious appetizers will be served throughout the cocktail hour.

 

[Paco Dennis]

One view seems to be that in a state of nature most men will fight, rob, &..., " for delectation merely " or " for glory," and that therefore all men must be allowed an indefinite right to fight, rob, &..., " for preservation."

 

[Ruthanne]

For my delectation I am having Beef Frank's tonight.
