Word of the Day
Propagate (transitive verb) -- to transmit something through generations; to pass a characteristic from one generation to the next; to make something known; to cause an animal or plant to multiply (from Latin meaning "offspring")
Word in a Sentence: In the Choices fantasy trilogy, the force of the geasa that Sandy Lender has created does not necessarily propagate through family lines, but is a power breathed into a person at conception by the gods. Some families are more prone to handling the power for good, thus the gods allow it to propagate until a family member who cannot handle it comes along and the power appears to die out.
Your turn! Do you have any clever sentences of your own here in our world to help us define today's word?
"Some days, I just want the dragon to win."
