Word of the Day
tittup (n or v)
A caper or prance; to move in a lively way
"Well," he says, "it's not much of a place for a tittup. There are one or two jolly old cockalorums there, and, when the season's on, you can go on the scoop in the way of a music-caper, or a hop, and you can get rid of the stuff there as well as anywhere."
--Francis Cowley Burnand, More Happy Thoughts
I haven't felt much in the mood to tittup lately. Scramble the letters and you get "putt it". That's more like it....
