Follow Friday is a blog hop Hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read
Q: What is the BIGGEST word you’ve seen used in a book lately – that made you stop and look it up? Might as well leave the definition & book too.
Good question. I don’t think it ever happened. You know when I read an English book, if I have a really big word or if I don’t understand it, well, I just pass. But it’s not something I can easily remember about.

I haven’t had to look a word up in awhile. I think because I read so much I have built up my vocab! 🙂

Having an ereader makes it so easy to look up a word while reading that it’s hard to remember which words I’ve looked up. But there was one recently that stands out to me. The word I had to look up was from David Mitchell’s novel Cloud Atlas. Check it out here

Hopping through. I usually let words I don’t know pass as well. I can normally figure out the context.

I agree with you. Usually the context helps define the word. 🙂
Happy Friday!!

I am about the same… I really haven’t had to look up a words meaning for myself. But I did look up one for my friend, just to be 100% sure I was giving her the correct meaning… LOL
Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier, old follower <3

Context works sometimes, I read a multitude of self-published books and I find much of the time I end up using my kindle to check the spelling of words.
