Word of the Week: Peruse
I feel compelled to feature this word, not because it is particularly esoteric or unique — though I do like the way it sounds — but rather because so many people so frequently misuse it.
Peruse (verb)
read thoroughly or carefully
"Pressed for time, Anne could not peruse the newspaper, as she usually did, opting instead to skim the arts and leisure section."
