Using the correct words is important in ensuring that the proper meaning of the speaker’s message is communicated correctly. However, it is easy to misuse word usage. First, there are words that are similar in sound, spelling, or meaning. Secondly, there are words that are loaded with political, social, historical, aesthetic, or moral values. Finally, there are words that are just simply overused or misused. For example, words such as fantastic, awesome, and incredible are commonly misused and have strayed away from their original meaning.

The DTM celebration honoring Todd Greenwood and Thaine Shetter at the November 3rd meeting was a joyous and inspiring meeting, and will rank as one of the historic PTM meetings of all times!
The event was glittered with excitement and awe-inspiring presentations, from the opening to the closing remarks, all embodying the spirit of what it really means to be a Toastmaster.
Here are some of the comments that fellow Toastmasters made about the celebration meeting:
“This is one for the archives and you all made it so!”
“Kudos for an excellent meeting! Very, very impressive!!”
“It is my honor to participate among our stellar team! WOW, AMAZING, OUTSTANDING, KUDOS, APPLAUSE.”
“The essence of Toastmasters is what you give and that is why PTM is the BEST!”
“It was an amazing, magical event, but then it is an amazing, magical group.”
“Awesome, awesome, awesome job in presenting PTM in this shining light.”
“Made all of us proud to be members of such an exceptional Club…and made those who weren’t members wonder why they have not yet joined…!”
“It was an honor for me to participate, and be a major part of an outstanding group.”
Thanks to President Lauren & the Executive Board, all agenda participants, and all who lent a helping hand. Special thanks to Todd and Thaine for all their outstanding accomplishments and contributions to PTM.
