Word of the Day

It's the first day of October, and the words just keep on coming'! Give us a few sentences using the word of the day, post it in the comments.

Dirigible

[dir-ə-jə-bəl]Part of speech: adjective

Origin: latin, late 16th century

  • Steerable
  • Capable of being controlled or directed

Examples of Dirigible in a sentence

  • Sure, your new aircraft invention is fast, but it's not dirigible; you can't steer it in the direction you want to travel.
  • Shauna piloted the dirigible blimp away from the building's spire, narrowly avoiding disaster.
Illya struggled with the gondola, it was not in the least a dirigible craft.
Illya struggled with the gondola, it was not in the least a dirigible craft.

"Illya will you please steer this gondola better, I can't focus on ..." Napoleon began to complain.

"Firstly, this boat is not the most dirigible and secondly I will not move closer so you can ogle the women strolling along the canal."

"Tsk," Napoleon clicked his tongue in annoyance. "Pretty please with a jumbo order of lasagna, tovarisch."

"Oh, all right." Illya adjusted his steering oar, heading closer to the steps where no doubt his partner would disembark and begin the 'hunt,' for his next encounter of the feminine kind.

As Solo readied to leave, Illya held out his hand. "Money for my lasagna, please. Signor."

A nice little episode, and hope Illya enjoys lasagna in its native haunt.
