Why is "abbreviation" such a long word? Why is there only one Monopolies Commission? Why is "dyslexia" so hard to spell? What is another word for "thesaurus"? How come almost no one uses "moribund" anymore? Nostalgia isn't what it used to be. I'm sure I've wondered why there is no English word for 'deja vu' before. Arrange the letters of "anagram" to make another word. What's the opposite of "antonym"? What does "dictionary" mean anyway? Is "non-self-descriptive" self-descriptive? Why is "monosyllabic" not when "pentasyllabic" is? Why bother to put "self-explanatory" in a dictionary? Why doesn't "It goes without saying" go without saying?
