Bubble vocabulary: the best way to expand your vocabulary is to use the words you don’t quite know. Illustration by Lisa Larson-Walker A little while back, I was chatting with a friend when he described a situation as “execrable.” He pronounced it “ex-EH-crable.” I’d always thought it was “EX-ecrable.” But execrable is a word I’d mostly just read in books, had rarely heard spoken, and had never once, in my whole life, uttered aloud—in large part because I wasn’t exactly sure how to say it, and because the nuances of its definition (beyond “bad”) escaped me. Since we have a trusting, forthright relationship, I decided to broach the topic.

Pinker Outline I. Linguistics: The Science of Language A. Donald Trump and The Definition of Insanity – Shane Snow’s Blog Albert Einstein is famously quoted: “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting something to change.” This is not, of course, the actual definition of insanity. It also turns out Einstein never said this. It actually comes from an Alcoholics Anonymous pamphlet from the 1980s. Which is apropos, because nearly 60,000 mental health professionals have diagnosed President Donald Trump with a type of insanity that is often compared to an alcoholic’s lack of honesty and impulse control. Sparked by Change.org petitions by a top former Johns Hopkins professor and a California congresswoman, the psychiatric community has declared that Trump suffers from “Malignant Narcissism.”
