Word Hippo<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Cloudeight<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s say you\u2019re feeling particularly ornery and you want to lash out. You could write a vitriolic diatribe and post it on your social media account. But what if you don\u2019t like the word vitriolic \u2014 say it annoys you because it sounds like I\u2019m a sesquipedalian.<\/p>\n

If you visit Word Hippo you can type in vitriolic and see a lot of synonyms:<\/p>\n

spiteful, venomous, hurtful, acerbic, bitter, cruel, rancorous, malicious, hateful, sarcastic, vicious, caustic. If that\u2019s not enough for you, you can click on any of those words and get synonyms for them.<\/p>\n

But let\u2019s suppose you\u2019re feeling the opposite. Type in \u201cVitriolic\u201d and find words that mean the opposite.<\/p>\n

Word Hippo also finds rhyming words too. If you\u2019re a poet or rap star or song writer you might find this useful.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe stuck her finger in the faucet hole
\nAnd pulled out a nasty multi-colored troll.
\nShe started screaming and the firemen came
\nThey tried to save her but they all were lame.<\/p>\n

That was the end of old Lucille McDill\u2026
\nShe was the owner of the cider mill.
\nNo more cider guys, the press is dry,
\nWipe that tear that is dripping from your eye.<\/em><\/p>\n

She thought she had so little to lose
\nShe stuck her nostril in like a fuse
\nShe was the princess of corn, the queen of chances
\nNow she’ll never again do one of her dances.<\/em><\/p>\n

Woe, woe, is Lucy McDill
\nIf anyone will try it, you know Lucy will.
\nBut now you hear the funeral chimes…
\nLooks like poor Lucy, did it too many times.<\/p>\n

The funeral\u2019s Tuesday<\/span><\/span> and I\u2019ll see you there.
\nIf you want please come and you can say a prayer\u2026\u201d
\n<\/em>
\nAnyway, you can do a lot of things with words at Word Hippo including writing award-winning songs (see above).<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not going to tell you everything else you can do at Word Hippo -besides the above you can find correct pronunciations, translate words, and more. You\u2019ll have to go to www.wordhippo.com<\/strong><\/a><\/span>\u00a0 to find out what the more is.<\/p>\n

I need to go finish my song of Lucille McDill, but first I need to take a pill and wash it down with a little swill..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
