Quiddity

By ETR

Word to the Wise: Quiddity

“Quiddity” (KWID-ih-tee) – from the Latin for “what” – is the essential nature of a thing, the quality that makes it what it is.

Example (as used by Bill Strickland in a New York Times review of Off the Deep End by W. Hodding Carter): “Reading about a subculture like swimming provides an opportunity to appreciate the idiosyncratic details and quiddity of the sport.”

[Ed. Note: Become a more persuasive writer and speaker ... build your self-confidence and intellect ... increase your attractiveness to others ... just by spending 10 VERY enjoyable minutes a day with ETR's new Words to the Wise CD Library.]
