Today's Word "gubernatorial"
gubernatorial \GOO-ber-nuh-TOR-ee-uhl\ (adjective) - Of or pertaining to a governor.
"Jed was convinced that the gubernatorial race was going to be as much of a snoozer as usual, and was surprised when the dirt one candidate threw at the other actually stuck, causing his downfall."
Gubernatorial is from Latin gubernator, "governor," from gubernare, "to govern," which is also the source of govern. _________________ Roland Camilleri
