WOW!

I never thought that I would be the only comment on a 'Word of the Day'. So I asked myself if I missed a memo about today's word or do you all really, really dislike Sodium that much?

In the end, I don't care or even wonder why. To add some filler to the comments, sorry no song and dance, I'm to old and gravitationally challenged.

In stead I present  you with

the following ten words:

LYMPH

LYNX

HWYL

FLYBYS

CWM

MYRRH

THYMY / MYTHY

SPHYNX

CRYPT

The words “table salt” and “sodium” are often used interchangeably, but they do not mean the same thing. Table salt (also known by its chemical name, sodium chloride) is a crystal-like compound that is abundant in nature. Sodium is a mineral, and one of the chemical elements found in salt.

Sodium is a chemical element; it has symbol Na (from Neo-Latin natrium).

Sodium in its mushy metal phase is usually stored in an oily liquid to keep it from reacting to air.
