🇨🇦 Canadian Word of the Day: Pencil Crayon
What do you call a wood-cased colouring instrument? If you're Canadian, you likely say 'pencil crayon.' Most Americans, on the other hand, call them 'colored pencils.' This simple two-word term is a classic piece of Canadian vocabulary, learned in elementary school art classes from coast to coast. It's a small but distinct marker of Canadian English. #Canada #CanadianSlang #WordOfTheDay #SchoolDays

It's time for #OldEnglish #WordOfTheDay and also the #AngloSaxon unattested #Saint of the month.
gomel-ferhþ [ ᚷᚩᛗᛖᛚᚠᛖᚱᚻᚦ ]: old sprit / old soul / wise heart or mind
gomel: Advanced in age, aged, old, ancient
ferhþ: 1. life 2. heart ; spirit ; mind
This is sometimes associated with people of great and deep magic. People of great wisdom and compassion.
An unattested #AngloSaxon saint from northern #Kent, Ædgingra (Blessed Vassal / Disciple), was said to be a gomel-ferhþ. He was known as a local healer and one who was very skilful in the arts of healing magics.
One story goes he was visiting the Kentish village of Hartlip, where when to pray under a tree and passed away peacefully.
After several days the villagers approached him and realised he had died. However, this body had not attached any flies and did not smell. In stead of disturbing him, they brought earth to where the rain kneeled and buried him. This became the spot there St Michael and All Angels Church was built.
They say, that during the rebuilding process in the early 1500s, as they dug down into the foundations, the body of the local saint was found, still in perfect condition.
