English (US)   The Good Word: intromit?  -  Categories: Writing and Editing  -  twv @ 01:48:43 pm

I just came across this word, which I'd never seen before: intromit. I haven't figured out why insert wouldn't do just as well. I read it in a scientific context. Scientists love Latin-based words. This one doesn't grab me. But perhaps I'll find a reason to use it. (I love some Latin-based words, such as scissile and frangible.)
