Today's Word "farrago"
farrago \fuh-RAH-go; fuh-RAY-go\ (noun) - A confused mixture; an assortment; a medley.
"Appearing on the chat show for the first time, Jenkins was subjected to a farrago of attacks from all sides such that he couldn't determine how to best defend himself."
Farrago comes from the Latin farrago, "a mixed fodder for cattle," hence "a medley, a hodgepodge," from far, a sort of grain. _________________ Roland Camilleri
