Well, 'I report what AVG told me' at the discussion linked-to through "that word" below.
What I show here is 'the group of words' that give "that word" a place to connect to your vocabulary ... deeper sources that firm the foundation upon which our lexicon stands ...
The word “Scan” is built on ancient words that mean "to |Spring, Leap, Climb (odd---the verb for 'looking at |Poetry to |Measure the "Metric Feet"' is connected to those words via the notion of 'the |Rising & Falling of Poetic Verse'" (also the source of (words that mean) Hasten, Jump, |Stumbling Block, |Bound).
