The new word- ROBWOP

…and the dream comes true!!

Miracles happen when we let it happen. We’ve been scratching our heads from quite some time, long before we started blogging in WordPress, about Neologism. For those who are not aware, a Neologism is the name for a newly coined term, word, or phrase that may be in the process of entering common use, but that has not yet been accepted into mainstream language. Can we create a word of our own that would be followed by millions around the world?

Finally, we are here in WordPress today writing about a word we created. The new word is ROBWOP!

ROBWOP is a noun. It is a term used for an imaginary Robot whose sole job is to keep track of those ‘speechless expressions’ from every nook and corner of the globe waiting to be seen, heard, read, explored and felt. We are talking of the million posts in WordPress. Whenever you find yourselves lost in the pool of posts in WordPress, ROBWOP would come to your rescue. ROBWOP has a 10G internet facility for uninterrupted connectivity!

The history of this word dates back to August 24, 2014 when The Daily Post came up with a Daily Prompt You, Robot that asked to create a post on the robot that was handed to bloggers.

There seems to be a new discovery,

An ardent love for poetry;

Fingers dancing on the keyboard,

The mind willing to go on broad!

 

A random word was what we chose,

In response to the Daily Post;

Thank you WordPress for being the host;

Oh! Now the world feels so much close!

 

This is the eleventh picture we found in google,

Yes, the word we searched was ‘travel’;

No, it’s not poetry, just a rhythm to our thought,

To intensify literature, we need to learn a lot!

Catch the Shadow

This post is part of The Daily Post Photo Challenge: Shadowed

We all are aware of the universal meaning of shadow and that shadowed is the past tense of shadow. This word is used as a noun and a verb.

Noun: 1. a dark area or shape produced by a body coming between rays of light and a surface.

           2. used in reference to proximity, ominous oppressiveness, or sadness and gloom.

Verb: 1. envelop in shadow; cast a shadow over.

          2. follow and observe (someone) closely and secretly. (Google Search)

While we were gazing at our albums for photographs to best fit this challenge, we came across few that would give a photographic explanation of the different meanings of shadow as explained above. We were excited to share them here. Give a read!

1. The photograph below was clicked on a winter day when the Sun was just behind us; creating a dark area produced by our body that came between rays of light and  the terrace surface.

2. The next photograph was taken during one of our journeys where this sheep was found to be sitting in the middle of the road away from the flock.The lamb looks so gloomy. We see the shadow of an argument on the family. Wonder if they really had one.

3. Below are few photographs where we can see the road shadowed by a camel cart and a structure, that stands in the middle of the road; and the forest path is shadowed by the trees, producing a cooling effect.

4. Finally, watch this monkey. We happened to capture the movements of this monkey. Wonder who was shadowed by this cunning creature.
