Week Four- Durable
Hello everyone,
It’s time for the Weekly Webster Word- which is something a lot more common this time. I would’ve thought durable was too common of a word to appear as the word of the day, but I guess it’s a nice break from some of the more confusing words. Here’s the definition on Merriam-Webster:
Durable describes people or things that last, or remain strong and in good condition over a long period of time. It is often used figuratively, as in “a durable athlete."
// The fabric was durable enough to withstand chewing from the family dog.
// She is one of Hollywood's most durable stars.
I was planning on doing some other prompts sooner or later, but, since durable is such a simple word, I’ll just keep it the same as always- use durable in a sentence or paragraph. Here’s mine (I’ve just realised I’ve included dialogue every week. I’ll have to challenge myself next Saturday):
“You know, I’d love to get somethin’ newer, I really would,” Lee drawled, smacking the rusted door of his Chevrolet C/K, “but this car’s just too damn durable, and I don’t see the point in gettin’ rid of a perfectly good car.”
Have fun and stay inspired!
Oof, super late to this. X|
I unsheathed my sword and held it out in front of me. Moonlight reflected off its deadly silver blade. My gaze traveled from the sharpened point to the sturdy handle wrapped in thick, durable barkcloth and down to the round pommel fitted with a glittering amber crystal. Just five years ago, my grandmother had wielded this sword against King Silvan in hopes of destroying his tyrannical rule. She had died, and the sword had been passed on to me, since my mother already had one of her own.
Now, five years later, I was following in my grandmother's footsteps. I could only hope that I wouldn't meet the same fate as she had.
That I would live to see the moon rise again.
Long, again, I know, but it felt unnatural to cut it off anywhere else...
