Here I am. I made it to Word Wednesday with a few hours to spare!  I hope you’re still out there!

schism:  a split or division between strongly opposed sections or parties, caused by differences in opinion or belief. (i.e. I’ll leave this one up to your imagination, but I know what I’m thinking..ten letters, first letter W or G)

mellifluous: (of a voice or words) sweet or musical; pleasant to hear. (i.e.  Israel Kamakawiwo’ole, people on THE VOICE, my husband but definitely NOT me.)

fractious: tending to be troublesome (i.e. the “voice” at the self check-out that keeps asking me to remove the last item from my bag)
