Yesterday I learned

the word ALEXITHYMIA - lit., no words of feelings, or an inability to articulate feelings in language (=some ex-bfs?)

(jk!)

I also learned that the average physician-in-training acquires 20,000 new words into their vocabulary during medical school and residency. (There are about 275,000 words in common usage in the English language; 185,000 in French)

No studies have yet examined the impact of this on average physician scrabble scores.
