It's only natural, then, as new words enter the language, old words will fade away, right? Not if Save the Words can help it!
Save the Words is a neat site dedicated to saving rare and lesser-known words from extinction.
Students will enjoy using words that sound made-up, even though they're 100% authentic. Most words here can also be parsed according to Greek and Latin roots, as well as common prefixes and suffixes (see the related post It's All Greek to Me).
Give the site a try! It's a terrific tool to encourage explorations into language!

Last year at college we used this website as the starting point for our A'level Art student. They each had to adopt a word which then became the inspiration for their project. It turned out to be one of our most successful projects so far. It is a really interesting website with many educational uses
