I discuss the famous actor (and why I call him 'the man beneath the suit') in a paying forum you can get to through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; you can join the conversation FOR FREE, but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The name “Leslie” is built on ancient words that mean "Garden of |Holly."
#Lesly #Lesleigh #Les #Lessie
I keep feeling I should call him "the #consummate #thespian," but ... for some reason it sounds like I'm calling him 'an actor who constantly ate (who #consumed everything!)' So let's clear some things up.
The word “Consummate” is built on ancient words that mean "Highest-, Sum-, Total Together, -With (Complete, Perfected, Carried to the |Utmost Extent or -Degree)."
#Consummately #Consummated #Consummating
The word “Consumed” is built on ancient words that mean "to (Intensely ... see Com-) Distribute-, Take-, Buy Under (see Sub- ... Waste, Eat, Use up, |Annihilate, Destroy)."
#Consume #Consuming #Consumer #Consumers #Consumable #Consumables #Consumptive
... and I was right about 'Thespian'; but--since I haven't 'done' that word yet (and since Leslie Jordan was 'the Consummate Thespian')--
The word “Thespian” (with my browser's Language Tool telling me I should've capitalized it the first time too!) is from the semi-legendary Greek poet #Thespis (Θέσπις), with a name built on ancient words that mean "Inspired by the Gods."
#Thepians #Thesp. #Thesps.
