It's time for us to upgrade in our way of communicating - especially as teachers, bankers, lawyers, writers, students, businessmen and women. In fact, everyone of us, needs to lighten up our speaking abilities.
It is very imperrative (important) that everyone using android or java phones should have a dictionary app.
During some job interviews, the use of simple and correct English is very important. This is why some of us Opera News Hub users make research virtually everyday on how to educate ourselves for our own betterment.
Don't forget, we are all learning! I learn from you, you learn from me. In the English world, no man is perfect - that is why even the dictionary is being upgraded constantly.
There are so many new words to learn, but, let's focus on this one.
There are some persons, though wealthy, but are addicted to stealing. Some steal money, some steal handsets, some steal clothes, some steal biro; pencil; eraser, while some steal books. There are so many stealing addictions in the world today with different names.
Those who are addicted to stealing, whether they are wealthy or not, are called KLEPTOMANIACS.
But, there are different forms of Kleptomania under which a BOOK THIEF falls in. We have:
Pyromaniac = someone addicted to starting a fire, or causing a fire accident.
Trichotillomaniac = someone addicted to pulling his/her hair out.
Biblioklept = One who steals books.
👇
Biblioklept.
Definition: one who steals books
Biblioklept is, in at least some sense of the word, fairly useless. It is two syllables longer than book thief. It is also unlikely to be understood by some portion of the people with whom you use it, and so cannot be said to aid in communication. Happily, we do not have a merit based vocabulary, and words that are useless have the same rights of inclusion as do those that are useful.
Example: Many eminent characters have been Biblioklepts.
I believe you have learnt something today!
