Word of the Day -Reiterate..tr.v.

Def.: To say over again .

Many politicians reiterate points in their speeches.

Reiteration mostly leads to irritation.

A classroom was learning all about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because
even though it was a very large mammal it's throat was very small.
A little girl said, "Jonah was swallowed by a whale."
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible. The little girl said, "When I get to heaven, I will ask Jonah."
The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask him."

And the more the re-iteration leads to more re-irritation. Ha!

Isn't it a little strange,
that it sometimes takes a person lots more words to reiterate something, even though they had already said it, at least once before!

 

[Ruthanne]

You can say that again I reiterated!

 

[Kaila]

When I ask a question regarding something that someone said;
they often reiterate their previous statements, without adding any additional clarity, details, or further explanations.

The reiteration of times tables in elementary school was a practice I disliked as much as the reiteration of Catechism questions.

 

[Jace]

OMG, R K...you are s-o-o right about the monatanous repetition of times tables...
But, it did work...you do remember to this day.

 

[RubyK]

No. I have never forgotten them, @Jace.
