I've been there & tried it. The first few words got my confidence up
before my apparent illiteracy was sadly revealed.

I also subscribe to A.Word.A.Day (http://wordsmith.org/awad/
subscribe.html). It's a fun (& free) daily word with derivations &
examples, not that my results on FreeRice are any testament.
Interesting, and easily worth the price, though.


Okay - I'll bite. What does "derivations" mean?
