Quidnunc

Post by Hancock4Duke » October 14th, 2009, 9:03 pm

When my dad was watching O'Reilly tonight, we noticed that the word of the day was Quidnunc. We googled it, and here was the meaning: " a person who seeks to know all the latest news or gossip ". And well, we thought, you can't spell Quidnunc without UNC. :))
Oh, Zeller wishes he could be as good as Zoubek.

Interesting. nunc is Latin for now and quid is a Latin word meaning what, that, something.
