The Random Text Says: "" I'm Not Writing Anything Else November 28th, 2001 - 2:09 a.m. I'm Currently Avoiding:I'm sick & tired. Literally. So you can just take your word of the day and do whatever it is with it that you normally do b/c I'm not writing anything else. forswear (v. for-SWAIR) 1 : to make a liar of (oneself) under or as if under oath 2 a : to reject or renounce under oath *b : to renounce earnestly 3 : to deny under oath Forswear (which is also sometimes spelled foreswear) is the modern English equivalent of the Old English forswerian. It can suggest denial ("[Thou] would'st forswear thy own hand and seal" -- John Arbuthnot, _John Bull_) or perjury ("Is it the interest of any man . . . to lie, forswear himself, indulge hatred, seek desperate revenge, or do murder?" -- Charles Dickens, _American Notes_). But in current use, it most often has to do with giving something up, as in the warring parties agreed to forswear violence and she refused to forswear her principles. Feeling lucky?
