VOCABULARY - COMMON WORD STORY 34
TOWNSTONE THE TOWN THAT WOULD NOT DIE
This is a writing exercise using common words. I have collected a list of 17,000
words. From this I have chosen twenty words at random. The exercise is to write a story with
at least ten of them. I have included my story along with a translation into other words.
Here is the list:
- ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAM
- REEVE
- HIGHLIGHT
- CRAWL
- BARITONE
- ALL
- POULTICE
- EPHAH
- CYST
- BOP
- DIZZY
- RIME
- HUSBANDRY
- BEAK
- FLAPJACK
- BAGEL
- HALL
- WHENCE
- GRIT
- SYNAESTHESIA
Here is my story:
Tombstone is a town in Arizona whence came all the grit
of the cowboy days. Scene of the fight at the OK corral.
A highlight is the opera house, a hall where baritones
once sang. In the saloon, dizzy cowboys crawled after being
bopped in the head. In the canteen, flapjacks where flipped
and a bun, the ancestor of today’s bagel was made.
Tombstone is a town in Arizona where all the grit
of the cowboy days came. Place of the fight at the OK corral.
A main feature is the opera house, a hall where opera singers
once sang. In the saloon, woozy cowboys went on their knees after being
hit in the head. In the kitchen shack, flapjacks where turned
and a bun, the predecessor of today’s bagel was made.
