Do you have keen vision?  Not vision like “I see you!”, but vision as in “I have a vision of what my future holds?”  Do you have keen mental perception and understanding?  If so, then you may very well be perspicacious.  At first glance you may have thought like I did; that when you read the definition of this word it would be something like “Someone who is prone to sweating”, but, like me, you would have been incorrect.  I actually had another word in mind for this week, but perspicacious was too sesquipedalian-ish to pass up! 

The first word nominated for this week was sagacious.  It means pretty much the same thing as perspicacious, except in this definition, rather than having vision, you have discernment; and we all know how vastly different vision and discernment can be.  I like sagacious because of the way it rolls off the tongue: SUH-GEY-SHUHS.  I like to hold my pinkie finger at an acute angle when I say it.  I think a cigarette holder like the Penguin used to use in the old Batman show would pretty much seal the deal: pinkie out, cigarette holder and sagacious.  Think of the ramifications of using those visuals the next time you’re at the store!  There you have it; a two for one Big Word Wednesday.  Don’t forget, you can always go to the BWW page to see all of the entries.
