Word of the Day

ar·mi·ger
ˈärmijər/
noun
  1. a person entitled to heraldic arms.


Out and about, I saw this decal on a car. The driver tells me he is an 'armature', and this is the 'badge' of his house. Okay, the word is armiger, not armature, and there is a website devoted to heraldry, coats of arms and all the associated do-dads, cumberbunds, etc., etc. and so on.
