That Kerry sure can spell
Congratulations to 13-year old Katharine "Kerry" Close from Spring Lake, the winner of the 2006 Scripps National Spelling Bee.Ursprache was the winning word, meaning "a parent language, especially one reconstructed from the evidence of later languages." Some other words that Kerry correctly spelled on her way to the championship: "recrementitious," "psittacism," "aubade," "kanone," "izzat," "tmesis" and "kundalini."
And the word that did in Kerry's final competitor: "weltschmerz," which means sadness over the evils of the world.
Good job, Kerry!
Oh, while we're speaking of spelling bees, if haven't seen the movie Akeelah and the Bee, get to the theaters now!
