word learned for the day...


After having lunch at Xavier University Grade School's canteen, my mom and I went to Sun's wireless center at Big R (Robinsons) building near Limketkai Mall and paid the bills. My mom asked for the entire bill of one of her employees and the teller asked us to wait because it might take time to get it. So, we sat down the chair and read some interesting magazines. My mom was so busy reading the stories about Gabby Concepcion (her crush) in the Yes! Magazine while I was given a magazine of infants and pregnant women. (Talk about interesting, huh! A teenager like me? Hehe!:D ) I did got bored a little but, I also learned many things about those things. Well, anyway, there we are waiting and reading.. Until such time, before she had finished the 7 pages stories of her crush, she crossed into a word called Albeit. She asked me to remember the word and scan the dictionary when we go back to the office. So, I first opened my blog and post some ideas while on my other tab, I searched for the meaning of Albeit. Thanks to Wiktionary, an online dictionary, I knew the meaning of that word. So here it is:

ALBEIT - (plural albethey)
  1. Despite its being; although.
    He has a very good idea, albeit a strange one.
So, that's it! That's the word I have learned today! I hope you have, too. ;D
