Jonah: I confess I’m not sure. I guess if it’s not actually a new word,
it’s just a new usage… and there is no word to describe that. There
ought to be, though. As fond as I am of new words, I am even fonder of
striking & imaginative usages for old words. That “beard” usage is
wonderful. I also like the verb “to calve” when applied to glaciers… Oh,
political punditry, the Democratic feld, yes… I’ll come up with
something…
