Our learned, veteran ENT expert with 41 years of experience has recently started another group for learning and understanding English words. Maybe, at the initial stage of our lives and as a mandatory requirement all of us are compelled to go through learning new words. But, after schooling and settling down in their career/life, most of them conclude that whatever is learnt is more than enough and no more learning is required. No doubt, it is a popular tendency there is no dearth of eternal learners as knowing, understanding and learning is a never-ending exercise for those having the urge to keep learning, irrespective of one's age and stage in life. So, let us be thankful for the Doctor preferring to remain anonymous and including me in the group having 300+ members almost all of them being doctors and medical practitioners. Let us have a look at a couple of words for today:
