We used to have compound words.
Back in the 60’s and 70’s.
But things kept evolving, and getting faster and fancier.
Now we have parasynthetic words.
Doghouse, paratrooper, oversized, packsaddle, underpaid, waterboy
Parasynthetic words.
Do not help your grandchildren with their homework unless you memorize all the new terms.
Prealgebra, biochemistry, parasynthetic.
What was wrong with compound words?
At least we had heard of it before.
Parasynthetic words now.
Just one more thing….

Photography
I used to have a dark room.
Trigonometry.
No reference, the word causes anxiety though.
Anthropology
I used to live for this subject, imagining myself in Egypt on a dig.
Art.
I dabble, four hundred paintings later, I have no idea what I am doing.
English.
Worst 7th grade teacher ever, but I like it in spite of that ridiculous time.
PreAlgebra
No memory of this whatsoever, and glad of it.
Homemaking.
The only parts I liked were the sewing and the eating after the cooking.
Reading.
I can sit in a treehouse all day long, devouring a stack of books happily while
Choking down my favorite sandwich – peanut butter, Miracle Whip and lettuce.
Poetry.
Love the cadence of it. Never have understood it. Apparently I do not have to.
