#02 Day

The word 'day' is so very easy to say and probably one of the first that we learn when we begin to read.
Every person in the English speaking (or in this case reading) world knows what the word 'day' means but the actual definition is:

Day: time required for a celestial body to turn once on it's axis; especially the period of the Earth's rotation

  5. Many thanks for visiting me over at Pen And Paper, it was good to meet you. A really great theme, you are so right that we use these every day words and yet never think about the real meaning behind them.
