Grammatolatry

July 22nd, 2008 by WordGirl

Just a funny word to share with you all. I thought I’d pass this on!

Grammatolatry
PRONUNCIATION:
(gram-uh-TOL-uh-tree)

USAGE:
“The worship of words is more pernicious than the worship of images. Grammatolatry is the worst species of idolatry.”

Robert Dale Owen; The Debatable Land Between This World And the Next; Trubner and Co; 1871.
