PHENOMENAL 2 LETTER WORD!!
https://ramamohanraocheruku.blogspot.com/2022/04/phenomenal-2-letter-word.html
I'm sure you will
enjoy this. I never knew one word in English language that can be a noun, verb,
adj, adv, prep.
UP
Read until the end
... You'll laugh.
This two-letter word
in English has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that word is
UP.' It is listed in the dictionary as an [adv.], [prep], [adj], [n] or [v].
It's easy to
understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we
have awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?
At a meeting, why
does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP, and why are the officers UP for
election (if there is a tie, it is a toss UP) and why is it UP to the secretary
to write UP a report? We call UP our friends, brighten UP a room, polish UP the
silver, warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house
and fix UP the old car.
At other times, this
little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for
tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses.
To be dressed is one
thing but to be dressed UP is special.
And this UP is
confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is blocked UP..
We open UP a store in
the morning but we close it UP at night. We seem to be pretty mixed UP about
UP!
To be knowledgeable
about the proper uses of UP, look UP the word UP in the dictionary. In a
desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4 of the page and can add UP to
about thirty definitions.
If you are UP to it,
you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a
lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may windUP with (UP to) a
hundred or more.
When it threatens to
rain, we say it is clouding UP. When the sun comes out, we say it is clearing
UP. When it rains, it soaks UP the earth. When it does not rain for awhile,
things dry UP. One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now . . . My
time is UP!
Oh . . . One more
thing: What is the first thing you do in the morning and the last thing you do
at night?
UP!
Did that one crack
you UP?
Don't screw UP.. Send
this on to everyone you look UP in your address book . . . Or not . . . it's UP
to you.
Now I'll shut UP!
Very neatly presented about the two letters. Let's keep this going and growing UP.
