"Recrudescence" is the word of the day
Lexicographer, etymologist, and star of British game show "Countdown," Susie Dent, posted an incredibly appropriate "word of the day" on her social media following yesterday's election in the United States: recrudescence. She wrote:
"Word of the day is 'recrudescence' (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve."
