I was having a look at www.dictionary.com at previous words of the day and found this one and liked the example that they gave of the word.
fallible \FAL-uh-bul\, adjective:
1. Liable to make a mistake.
2. Liable to be inaccurate or erroneous.
But human beings are fallible. We know we all make mistakes.-- Robert S. McNamara, "et al.", Argument Without End
I like the part - Argument without End. It is so true when you think about it.
Othere words that I like are:
virago \vuh-RAH-go; vuh-RAY-go\, noun:
1. A woman of extraordinary stature, strength, and courage.
2. A woman regarded as loud, scolding, ill-tempered, quarrelsome, or overbearing.
Sounds like me some days
comestible \kuh-MES-tuh-buhl\, adjective:
1. Suitable to be eaten; edible.
noun:
1. Something suitable to be eaten; food.
There are some strange words in our language.
