Thesaurus Thursday: "Prevaricate."

Today's word is "prevaricate," a noun meaning to lie, mislead, or evade.

When reading "health advice" on the internet, it is surprising how often doctors prevaricate when responding to serious questions dealing with illnesses with which they are not familiar, deciding instead to revert to talking about what they know best or to provide tenuous information.


I never prevaricate.  I know everything.



I am currently wondering whether it would be a good move to make Zoe a staple of Thesaurus Thursdays.  Who here thinks corgi pictures might help them build their vocabulary??
