A.Word.A.Day--litigiousPronunciation: WAV or RealAudiolitigious (li-TIJ-uhs) adjective 1. Pertaining to litigation. 2. Eager to engage in lawsuits. 3. Inclined to disputes and arguments. [From Middle English, from Latin litigiosus from litigium, dispute.] "My friend John Opel of IBM wrote an article a few year ago titled `Our Litigious Society,' so I knew I was not alone in my view that lawyers and litigation have become severe handicaps to business, and sometimes worse." This week's theme: words from "Made in Japan", by Sony co-founder Akio Morita.
X-BonusIt seems to me that those songs that have been any good, I have nothing much to do with the writing of them. The words have just crawled down my sleeve and come out on the page. -Joan Baez
